A New Beginning...

MY FIRST TRIP TO EUROPE!! Things are settling down from a busy birthday weekend, and I am almost packed for my trip. I leave early tomorrow morning from New Orleans, and I will be visiting with family in Chicago during my layover. Then it's off to Paris, seated next to one of my close friends from Georgetown that will be attending the program with me. Tuesday morning brings a train/metro ride from Charles de Gaulle Airport to the city of Paris, followed by moving in with my host mother, who is a retired artist in the 13e arrondissement. I look forward to updating the blog after my arrival in Paris. Wish me luck (and pray for no volcanic ash from Iceland tomorrow)!
