Pre-flight jitters

Though I haven't set foot in Paris yet, I can feel my excitement (and nerves) growing steadily. My mom and I have successfully gotten my passport signed, which is a fantastic feeling considering the angst in paperwork we had experienced prior to our drive to Chicago.

I have already been reassured by many people who have traveled abroad and been to Paris that I will have an experience of a lifetime. I'm sure living with a host family and taking classes that are specific to learning more about French as a language will make the experience all the more memorable.

Wish me luck!!
