It's Real!

I've been doing all kinds of paperwork over the past few weeks and this trip is getting more and more real by the day, hour, gosh, even second. Visa paperwork, apartment application, international driving permit, work contract, bank account paperwork.. It never ends!

Only 10 days until I leave Houghton and 20 until I leave the country! I'm sure that I'll have a lot more to post as soon as I get into Germany and meet up with family / move into my apartment.

I'll be living on a college campus in Paderborn, Germany so hopefully I will meet many people my age that I can create lifelong friendships with. Check out the college campus I'll be living at here.
