Almost There

Hello.

Very little time left until I find myself running around Spain. I’m mostly packed now save for a few odds and ends and the pieces of clothing I’ll fling in at the last moment in a desperate attempt to over-prepare. My suitcase is approximately the same weight as a chubby 2^nd grader, though infinitely more unwieldy. (Scratch that, just weighed it, it’s the same weight as a really fat 2^nd grader, which British Airways doesn’t like, so I’m going to give in and check two bags).

I’m a wee bit nervous, but I know I’ll love it. Ever since I set foot in Seville in 11^th grade, I’ve wanted to study there (though, at the time, I didn’t think about taking classes in Spanish). It’s beautiful there. I hope I can adequately paint a picture for you. I’ll do my best to snap pictures, but I tend to forget about my camera in the moment; so, at times, you may have to be content with my words.

Well, this is it, darlings. Not too long from now, the world is going to seem just a bit smaller as I acquaint myself with somewhere new. Here’s to hoping you all have splendid adventures of your own and enjoy reading about mine.

Love,

Natalie
