12 days till I leave, this journey so far has been an amazing experience. I haven’t even started the trip yet, and I have made so many new relationships. It didn’t come to reality for me that I was leaving until about a week ago. So many emotions have been going through my head that I don’t really know what to think. Am I nervous, scared, excited, worried. To be honest I am probably a little bit of all of those things. Worried that I am either going to pack to little, or not enough. These things are normal thoughts, and this is a big step for me and the rest of my squad. I am so thankful to have those people that are dealing with the same experiences so that we can work through them together. The parent launch got canceled due to covid, so my parents will not be driving me down to Gainesville. Even though I am disappointed, it will give me an opportunity to process and have some alone time to think. Also, our travel schedules changed a bit. We will no longer be going to Eswatini first. We will fly out to Costa Rica in early November. I am excited for the change in scheduling because everything Is happening for a reason. Thank you to everyone for being so supportive in this process. There will be more Blogs and updates to come!
