(I would have posted this earlier, but I just got wifi)
Well I am officially on my way to Denmark to start my journey. I have left the United States and am now writing this in the London airport while waiting for my connecting flight to Oslo, Norway then following that with my final flight to Aarhus, Denmark. The goodbyes in DFW were hard that’s for sure, but I am ready for all the new experiences that will be coming my way.
I ended up with two suitcases (that barely made the weight limit of 50 pounds both at 50.5 pounds), a carry on suitcase, and a backpack. May seem like a lot, but I still don’t know if I have everything to last me the whole 6 months. Thankfully, I know I will be able to buy pretty much anything I forgot or need there.
Traveling has been going pretty well so far. My first flight arrived an hour later than it was supposed to, but thankfully we had a three hour layover to begin with so we made it just in time for the start of boarding for Oslo after going through security again. Traveling wears me out that’s for sure and the 7 hour time difference from Dallas doesn’t help. So I’m looking forward to getting to Aarhus and going to my new house for a good nights sleep.
