10 Days Out..

Blogging From: Pennsylvania, United States. 

*Show some sort of excitement and explain how I don't know exactly what I'm doing*

Now that we got that out of the way, let's begin!

It is exactly 2:37 am on August 22nd and it appears to me that this morning I bought a one-way ticket to France. Now, I know what everyone is asking "why France, Taty? To be honest, I don't fucking know. Okay, okay that's a lie. There are several reasons why I chose France. The first and most important one, Napoleon Bonaparte was from France, he was buried in France AND there is a museum about his life in FRANCE! Second reason, living in France for a few months will allow me to learn another language, which if you did not know, French is the language required by the United Nations if you ever wish to work with them— for them. ( Yes, on top of becoming first female president of El Salvador, I will also become Secretary General of the UN) What can I say, I like to dream big! 

But let me tell you how I got here. I am a person with one plan. I don't have plan B. I don't need plan B because, I only have plan A and one hundred percent of the time I get that done. The plan was for me to go to law school right after college. I messed up. Fast forward to 3 weeks ago, I am back at my parents home with no job, no school to look forward to, and pretty depressed. Now, I am not sure how people in a similar situation would react, but for me, the best decision was to explore Europe since I am not doing anything else. I know this sounds like I am running away from my problems, which honestly, I might just be doing that. However, I also think that I need to do this. I need to explore and get it out of my system before I return to school to complete my master's degree in international relations, and consequently, attend law school. 

Am I scared? of course. I am moving to a different country, after all. Not only that, but I'm moving to a place where I don't speak the language, I am not sure of how the currency works, and I'm also not sure where I'm going to live or what I'll be doing with my life. But it will be fun.

 I guess that's it for today. I will not be blogging every day before the trip, but I will be making some updates. My idea with this blog is to share with the internet every day I am on the road. Share the good things and share the bad things about this trip. Hopefully, I can do a good job here.
