I can't even believe that we are leaving in only two days for this amazing adventure!!!! I have started packing and organizing! I'm getting really excited! The weather is suppose to be really bad Tuesday so we aren't sure how our flights will be. Hopefully the weather will cooperate and we can leave on time and get there safely! I will post as soon as we get there on Tuesday night!!!! SO EXCITED! :)
Now that the holidays are over I can finally focus on my pre-travel prep! I have a feeling that packing is going to very difficult. I don't have to overpack my bags but I also want to make sure that I bring everything with me that I am going to need! We have been lucky enough to receive a packing list from one of the professors who is accompanying us on this adventure! I think having this will help me. I am getting really really excited about this trip! It's finally starting to feel real! I am the most excited to leave snowy Buffalo and land in beautiful Dominican Republic! I am grateful that we were able to meet as a group many times before actually leaving on this trip. I feel like we have all been able to get closer and bond through these meetings. I feel like I am forming relationships that will last long after this trip! I think I am the most nervous about leaving my family for three weeks. I've never traveled without them or been away from them for this long. This will definitely be a growing and learning process for me and I can't wait to gain some independence! I think initially I will be sad to get dropped off at the airport but once I see all of my friends I will be so excited to begin this journey! That's all for now! I'll post again once I start the packing process! We will see how this goes... |
