I'm crossing the big pond in less than five days! If you don't already know, I will be studying abroad in Dublin, Ireland this summer. I've decided to start this travel blog to track my adventures and keep my thoughts straight while I'm in the Emerald Isle.
Right now, I'm making preparations for my trip. I'm all full of nerves and excitement. It will be difficult to leave family and friends for such a long spell, but at the same time, I can't wait to get over there and experience Europe!
Packing sucks though. Here's a picture of a suitcase I've filled with packaged foods and medicinal remedies for any and all possible maladies that might strike while abroad:
Will I actually need all this? Probably Not. Does it make me feel better to have it? Definitely. The best part is that I can fill this suitcase with souvenirs on the trip home :)
