Oh Hai There!

I leave today and am buzzing with nervousness and excitement!!! I can't believe how fast today has come. I have no idea what to expect and can't imagine what this foreign winter-wonderland will feel like as my home for the next few months. While Calgary suits me just fine, it's not the setting but the people that make me feel so comfortable. I know I'll miss this comfort the most, and can already feel the ache of loneliness and homesickness that creeps up on one after a few weeks away from home. However, at the same time I'm so curious and excited that the closer I get to take-off, the less afraid I am of what I'm going to miss! Everything that matters will be exactly the same once I'm home! 

And so; here's to a trip not plagued by such worry, and its partner the heavy-heart, and to my Swedish adventure! 

To my dear friends and blog followers; I'll keep you updated as best as possible with photos, thoughts and stories of this trip. My apologies in advance for any mopey/whiney/lonely posts that I'm sure to resort to every so often. Many thanks for being my friends and in my life (or in the case of a few of you, for creeping on my blog). I hope that I don't bore you, and that this keeps you up-to-date with my life in lieu of the chats I have, and time I spend, with many of you at home.

E-mails, messages and love notes are always welcome, and over the next few scary months, encouraged.

Love,

Syd
