Well, World, this is it...

The suitcase is (mostly) packed.
I have all my official documents.
I've had my panic attack.
I'm ready to go.

(Handmade soaps from Asheville for my host family)

Thanks to everyone for helping me get here. Without the support, love, and money of my family and friends, I wouldn't be leaving tomorrow.

Next time you hear from me, I'll be in a different continent.
Unless customs officials decide to make my life hell, as they usually do.
