The trip part 1.

Hey everyone!

First of all I'd like to welcome you all to my blog where you can follow my activities when being away from you OR for some of you even closer =)

It has been a hectic day so far. Maybe it's my fault but I think it wouldn't have been any different anyway. These last few days have been quite stressful. I've been thinking through things I needed to do before leaving and what to pack and what not. I literally started packing yesterday. I had my clothes washed already some time ago. Last week has been dedicated mostly to my 'not-so-attractive' clothes. I had only few hours to pack since I had to go to my farewell party, the second one. I came back from there around midnight and continued packing and fell asleep at 4 o'clock. I got up at 7.15 to hug my mum goodbye, then closed my eyes for another 20 minutes and then finished packing. It took me about 3 hours. ****sidenote: my sister just sent me an sms that made me cry, more about it afterwards**** I was so sure I left something behind and I'm still sure of it. Luckily my bag with warmer and winter clothes will follow me in the next month or so; meaning I can add whatever I forgot in that bag. My best friend came to pick up some things and I got a hug from her (really needed that one!) Then my sister came and we looked at old pictures and she brought me some also to take with me. Of course leaving took time and in a hurry. 13:37 we left my home and thanks to our fast walk we reached the bus station at 13:50. Got my ticket, hugged my little sis and now I'm sitting in the bus on my way to Tallinn. Got to love Estonia, eh? We have free WiFi in our buses! =P Well, only certain buses but got to adore the idea still!

So my sis sent me an sms, it was very personal and up until now I've been strong and held back my tears when it came to my family but my sis is the closest and I can already feel how much I miss her. We agreed we'll make at least one 1-hour Skype date every week =)

In the following days I will tell all of you more precisely where the idea for the EVS came, why Sweden and what my work there will be. Be prepared for lots of pictures and maybe some videos. Stay tuned ;)

Hugs!
