I'm sitting here in Beford, MA writing this blog with a nervousness that I'd like to say cannot be matched with any other past event in my life. My sister, and I'm assuming all of my cousins in the hotel room next door, is knocked out and I'm up early thinking and anticipating what's probably going to be one of the craziest adventures I will ever get myself into. A close friend once told me to add a trip to Peru on my bucketlist just so I'd be able to cross it off in what will be less than 24 hours. I may just take his advice.
Needless to say my flight to Peru (or Miami, first) leaves at 5:30pm today and I'm more than certain I'm not mentally prepared for the trip. I can say with reasonable confidence that it still hasn't hit me that I'll be gone for about 4-5 weeks and then practically the entire summer once I return. I'm super excited, though, because I know that a recent change in my character is letting me embrace all the good and even the bad that's been happening to me as of lately. Anyway, I should probably wake everyone up and get myself together. Perhaps even take another look at my textbook (pretty much a book on the history and culture of Peru) and try to envision the llamas and steep lands of Machu Picchu once more before I experience it up close. With that said, toodles! I shall write again once I reach my promise land.
