I arrived a week ago, jet lagged, excited, but also confused and unsure of what to expect. I had high expectations, maybe too high, but after an adjustment period, it's been great. I want to stay longer!
I'll admit, it's been difficult not being able to speak the language very well, but it's motivated me to learn it even more.
I have taken over 500 pictures, so all of you who said, "take lots of pictures," have no fear. I will post the good ones once I sift through them at home. Maybe I'll release them in short waves as I have time. I don't miss working at all, but it will definitely be nice to see my friends at home again.
I get on the plane in 7 hours. It will be a 40 hour Tuesday for me. This jet lag is going to kill me. Totally worth it.
