After my visa finally arrived and I managed to pack four months worth of things into a 34 pound backpacking backpack, a small carry-on duffle, and my school backpack, I was finally ready to go. My whole extended family threw a going away party for me and my cousin who will be going to Portugal last night at my house. It was the perfect goodbye after a great break. My family came with me to the airport this morning and waved goodbye for a solid ten minutes as I went through security right up until I boarded the train to my gate. I already miss them a lot, but I am more than excited for this new adventure. Although I just found out I have a middle seat from Newark to Mumbai, a 15 hour flight, which is less than exciting. If I make it through, next time you'll hear from me I'll be in India! Goodbye! And wishing everyone the best next four months! Keep up with my blog for details about my semester and updates on what I am up to.
