“Hello Mtv, and welcome to my blog!” I meant to write this post over a week ago, but instead I’m writing it hours before my flight takes off for London, on only a couple hours of sleep. It feels like past couple weeks my primary occupation has been packing, preparing, and packing again. When packing for a three month study abroad program, you realize you have both too much and too little stuff. It still feels surreal that I’m actually going to the U.K, I’ve only left the U.S once and that was to briefly go to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. On this blog I will try to document my travels, mainly for my own “edification”, but if kismet has lead you here, feel free to follow along. – Kelsey, your favorite stupid American.
