In a city as big as London, a small town girl as myself feels very nervous. I look at this adventure as a stepping stone in my life-another step into growing up. From what I know, the american culture to European culture shows many differences in foods, sports, money, and government. I feel anxious in getting a little piece of it all. Im going with an open mind, heart, and positive attitude. I am hoping on getting the whole experience and really connecting with the city in that little time I have there.
Growing up in a small town, and going to college in a small town, I would have never expected myself to do anything out of my comfort zone. Even back home in HoodRiver, I still don’t know all the street names around there, because I have gotten so used to just getting around, and sticking to “what I already know”. So this time I told myself I needed to do something that was different from anything I have ever done. Now here I am, a sophomore in college, ready to see what this big world has to offer me. My emotions are all over the place as you can imagine, me being the home-grown girl that I am. My expectations are up in the air, and the excitement is never ending.
