Maybe about time.

Here I am, last night in Europe and getting ready for a long flight to America tomorrow. For the first time, I feel ready to go home. Maybe it's the awful hotel beds or the need to lug a semesters worth of stuff around the world or maybe it's because it's been almost five months. All I know is I am ecstatic to finally sleep in my own bed.

It's safe to say I have been bitten by the travel bug (I've already started looking up flights for the summer). It's been a really incredible semester. Ill try not to get too cheesy here but I feel so lucky to have had this incredible opportunity and I've learned a lot about the world and myself (Awww).

I'm not quite sure who's reading this blog but I see the numbers going up so you must exist which I appreciate! Thanks for joining me on this adventure.

Tomorrow ill board my last flight (well...until I go to school next week. Oh man). Ill see my last duty free stores and souvenir shops. I'm off to a world where street signs are in English, where bread and water is free of charge and where I can always google on my phone. Oh the luxury.

Here are the final stats:
137 days
8 countries
7 currencies
14 flights
Countless memories (aww I know but I just had to stick that one in there)

It's been amazing, I can't believe it's over. Finally going home and then it's off to Ohio: the land of Walmarts, cornfields and some of my best friends

Thanks for reading. Maybe this blog will be revived for my next great travel adventure but for now, see you in America!
