About the trip:

I am studying abroad in Thailand for the Spring Semester of my Junior year at Gustavus Adolphus College! It is so exciting to have the opportunity to go on the trip and experience Amazing Thailand.
Please leave me a note or tell me about life back in the U.S.! I will try and update this as often as possible so that everyone can know what I am up to.

About leaving

I figured I should start my blogging before I left because I can try and get something on this empty page. I am super excited to leave but I am nervous. Marit, my roommate, is thankfully going to be on the trip with me though and although we won't be living with the same family, I know she is not too far away.

I encourage all Family, Friends, etc. to post here and tell me everything and anything. I plan on learning a lot from this experience and hopefully grow as a woman. Does anyone have any advice or words of wisdom for me?

    You are already more of a woman than I could ever hope to be but I know you'll find new facets of amazing while you are away! I love you and wish you the best.
