I have certainly done my fair share of traveling. I have seen over 38 US States and have been to both Canada and Mexico, but this is the first time I have left the continent! I am very excited and extremely nervous about the entire thing!! I feel pretty sure that I am reasonably experienced in traveling, but what I love is that every time an individual travels to a new place they revert back to being completely inexperienced because every place is new and different!! I will certainly enjoy adding this experience to my travel log =D

I have always wanted to go to London, as far back as I can remember it has been one of the top five places I wanted to go to. So it is wonderful that I am actually getting to go! I am hesitant to speculate on what it will be like when we all get there, mostly because we are going during the summer Olympics. Which, will (I am sure) change a lot of the atmosphere. So I do not know what to expect really. I feel that above all it will be fantastic!

I am so nervous I do not know what to expect exactly. I know that while there I want to see as much as I possibly can, though I know I won’t be able to truly scratch the surface of the culture, I want to be able to really experience it. I also really, really, really want to make as many friends as I can. I would love to meet new people from all over the world, I am sure I will get the chance considering the timing, and hopefully this will allow me to stretch my perception of the culture I will be immersing myself in as well as the perception that others have on my own culture!!

The entire process will be amazing I am sure, I think the best part (and the worst part) at this point is not knowing what to expect at all. I can only hope that I am ready!!  Angela
