Tomorrow

Tomorrow, at around 11 am, I will be leaving my green foursquare home and I will officially begin my adventures in Sweden. I will land in Sweden around 1 pm on the 29th of July. (Swedish time)

I am surprised how quickly this date arrived. I am glad my mother was rather adamant that I begin packing a few weeks before my departure. July was rather stressful, but it has paid off.

My goal is to update my blog weekly or biweekly. I don't want to be glued to the screen, so I will not be using facebook for several weeks after my arrival, and I will be reducing my summer computer usage in general.

I am sure everything will work out. I am trying not to make myself too nervous. I am not sure what the next few days, weeks, or even year, for that matter, will hold, but I am excited and hopeful. I will be meeting my host family, wishing my host sister a good year in the U.S after about five days, and then attending a week long language camp before school starts in late August. That is all I know.

Thanks to everyone who reads my blog. Good luck to the Rotary students who will be leaving in the next days and in August and September. Good luck to the students beginning college this year, and good look to everyone else! I look forward to keeping in touch.

Med vänliga hälsningar,
Martha
