So, after a teeny bit of cajoling, I have decided to write a blog documenting my travels. I think that I will really love having it to look back on when I am old and gray and can't remember a single detail of my wondrous adventure, or perhaps when my prince and I need funny stories of our first interactions, merely kidding, sort of.
Anyway, I am sitting here in my living room with butterflies in my stomach. I am excited, super excited, and cannot wait to leave. I am mostly packed, with the help of my mother choosing out what exact clothes to bring, and have a feeling that I will regret bringing with me as much as I have.
A week from now I will be in Detroit... super. On thee way to London though! I will meet Alison in the Heathrow airport, assuming all of my... my one, connection is made and everything goes smoothly. From there we will ride the Heathrow Express to Paddington Station where we will get another train that will take us to our home away from home for the next three and a half months, Swansea.
My hope is that is blog is somewhat enjoyable to read and a good way to keep in touch with people who I will be missing quite a bit. However, that being said, my ego will not be bruised if I am droning on a bit too much about something and you decide to not read the post in it's entirety.
And so for now I say, hwyl*, Julia
*Cheers
