I'm really going to France!

And soon, too! I have been so busy lately, working a lot, saving money, planning, dancing, rehearsing, aaaah!! I am tired and think that after I come back from Europe I really need to cut back a little. On what I don't know yet, I'll just have to see how I feel afterwards.
It's starting to hit home that in less than five weeks I will be on my way to France! My friend Clara is moving back to jolly old England (Cambridge to be exact) in April so I will be spending at least three days with her, perhaps staying with her mom in a grand old mansion on a college campus, perhaps traveling with her somewhere else, probably a bit of both.
I'm excited to be a solo traveler on my very first overseas trip. I have always enjoyed spending time alone and especially taking solo vacations, so this one definitely promises to be full of experiences I have never had before. I plan on taking ONE smallish bag for the whole month and am determined to pack light and be comfortable, so I am flexible enough to travel and move around easily without the cumbersome weight of a large pack. It's a bit of a personal challenge to see how little I can get away with bringing! I will be updating this blog a lot more as my trip planning comes closer, actually I might start a new travel blog, which will give me an excuse to travel more!
Thailand's next, here I come!
