30 days

The panic has begun. 30 days till I leave for Europe. I am so excited but completely scared. I am a home body. This is my first long trip. I love the comfort of my own home and my own bed. I know that I am going to be so home sick and I can not stop stressing over it. This adventure is going to change my life. I am going to see and experience things that I've only dreamed of. I'm looking forward to all the experiences but I can't help but think that I have no idea what life is going to be like when I get home. What am I going to miss? Is time and distance going to change me and the relationships I have with everyone here. I'm sure that I am being dramatic but I tend to stress more than necessary. I fear that the progress I have made in certain relationships will diminish once I get back. I know the only thing I can do is to put my faith in the fact that if a relationship is as meant to be and as strong as I think then it will still be strong when I get back.

  1. Jennifer, 30 days! That's so awesome! You are going to have the time of your life. Your family and friends will be here when you get back - throw yourself into the fullness of the travel experience and don't look back!

  2. Jennifer,
    I can't believe that it is only 30 days away! I remember reading the post about when you decided to go to Europe. It seems so long ago. That is awesome, and you will have tons of fun.

  3. If you ask me, the opportunity that is in front of you is an experience worth having. Good or bad, definitely worth the experience. I went on a 2 week trip to Europe without my family and I experienced much of what you explained above. It will all be great!
