Bonjour mes amies et ma famille!
This is really happening. Still trying to wrap my mind around this whole "study abroad in west Africa" thang, even as I sit here at the SeaTac airport waiting for my first flight! After a few days of running around doing many last-minute errands, saying goodbye to Shmuggie (for those of you that don't know, that's my dog;) She's the coolest dawg), and saying goodbye to my parents as they both dropped me off at the airport early this morning, I am clearly a whirlwind of emotions, curiosities, and anticipation! I have had a great send off as all of you incredible friends and family have sent good wishes and encouragement my way- very grateful for that! I am flying SeaTac to Dallas, Dallas to Paris (where I will meet up with the rest of the SCU group), and then Paris to Ouagadougou. Woohoo! I will update at some point when I am safe and sound in Ouaga, but for now.....Burkina Faso HERE I COME! :)
