As I am packing up and getting ready to move to Brussels tomorrow, I had to share the cutest picture ever! This was absolutely not staged....Maxie just jumped right in my suitcase and said...."you are not leaving without me!!"
Hey, Tippa!!! I'm sorry yesterday was so stressful for you - HOWEVER, I can say that when I was experiencing my first overseas stay on my own, I wondered the streets of Paris for probably 2 hours before I figured out where the heck my new "home" was even located....and this was carrying all my luggage and my pillow - yes, my pillow - and yes, on the streets of Paris. Does this just visual just scream, "I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHAT I AM DOING HERE!" I was all alone and thought I would never make it.
Needless to say, I did make it. I ended up loving it, and it was hard to leave. You will have good days, bad days, excellent days, and horrible days - but it'll all be a GREAT experience. Keep that in mind, and GOOD LUCK!
I moved to Brussels, Belgium for a 2 year work assignment in April 2007! I have been blessed to travel around Europe and beyond to places I never dreamed I would have the opportunity to see. I hope you enjoy reading about my adventures and sharing in the fun!
