This is my first post documenting my long journey ahead of me. I am very excited and very optimistic about my learning abilities. The last couple of months leading up to my departure have been nerve wracking and almost peaceful, with no worries of an upcoming school year at my regular high school. But this trip has also given me the feeling of growing up to fast, i sometimes forget that i am only 16 and get caught up in the wave of independence that has swept over me.
Independence is a funny thing, its like a pair of shoes you grow into. I have grown into mine and ran and broken them in, but now moving to France, is making me buy a whole new pair. Which is exciting, scary, and very much new territory.
This is my chance to be young and grow up again. To be curious and naive, to have absolute trust and to gain back a loss of innocence.
SO this post is marking the beginning of my childhood in France.
