In less than 24 hours I will be in the air, finally heading out to Europe! I can’t believe the time is here at last. I am feeling surprisingly good and calm despite all of the worrying I was doing in the past months. The 25th-27th are my travel days, and I am very excited to start my adventures to get me from Southeastern Pennsylvania to Freiburg, Germany! Here is how I am going to spend the next couple of days.
Monday, February 25th
Today I plan to get breakfast with my mom and run some last-minute errands, such as getting some vacuum packing bags and stopping at the bank. Then, I plan on coming back home, FaceTiming my best friend to chat with her before I leave, and doing a final packing session. Since my flight is at 11pm, I want to get to the airport at 7 or 8, and I will meet up with my friend with whom I am traveling. Once I get to the gate, I think I will be able to relax.
Tuesday, February 26th
My flight goes to Paris with a layover in Spain. I should be arriving in Paris in the afternoon, if my flight and time change math is correct. My travel buddy and I have a hotel that is very close to the airport, so our lodgings are all planned and taken care of.
Wednesday, February 27th
Today I will take a train from Paris to Freiburg, and I will have a couple hours to unpack and relax before orientation begins.
After running through my travel itinerary a few times, I am feeling very comfortable with my travel plans. I am starting to worry less about it all, and I cannot wait to get going! See you all in Freiburg 🙂
