Getting Ready

Most of the people I have spoken with say studying abroad is the best decision they have ever made and one of the best experiences in their young life.  I am lucky enough to embark on this journey in 4 days.  I can't believe the time is almost here.  I am working to get everything ready for my trip, packing, planning, and logistics.  Trying to get everything to fit in a suitcase and a carry-on will be the first challenge of many. 

I would like to leave with some expectations of my study abroad experience
  • Learn the German language.
  • Immerse myself in another culture.   
  • Meet a variety of people.
  • Travel, Travel, Travel.
  • Become more independent.
  • Challenge myself.
