I'm currently sitting at the Baymont Inn close to O'hare International Airport! I hop onto a shuttle at 7:30 to make my way to the airport. Excitement and nervousness are probably the two most prominent emotions running through my head right now. Did I forget anything? What will it be like when I get there? Will I get lost? Will I be able to find my friends? These are all questions that have been running through my mind since the time my head hit the pillow last night.
I have never been abroad before in my life! Participating in Earlham College's Studies in Cross-Cultural Education program is not only an experience of a lifetime for me, but also a time to delve into another culture and learn about another people's view on the big picture of life. I will be using this blog as a means to write down what I see. I will add pictures where necessary and applicable.
This will be a great adventure, and I hope that I can keep up with all of the fast-paced changes that will be happening in the next few days. For now, I must depart. My next entry should be near our arrival at Narita Airport.
