So I leave Monday (today is Thursday). Time is moving slowly but I can't believe my adventure starts in 4 days. I have been spending the past month saying my see ya layers but now that there are only a few days left people are trying to get in a few more goodbyes and hugs.
The #1 question I get is "are u nervous?" the honest truth is no. I'm not nervous about going across the world. I love helping people and I can't think of a better time in my life to give back and go where I am needed. I'm excited to live in a hut with no electricity and just be around people and nature (and a little bit of technology).
The hardest part of all this is leaving my family and friends. In these past few weeks I've thought of all the birthdays and holidays I'm going to miss these next two years, so that had me a little down. But whenever I feel myself getting sad about that stuff I think of everything I will be experiencing.
I've had plenty of birthdays and holidays with my family and friends in the states. Now is the time to step out and dare to go against the norm.
I'm so happy to be going to Zambia & I'm really gonna miss everyone here in the US.
