Berkeley, California
Dear all,
Welcome to this freshly created weblog which I am planning to use while being in the US of A. Since I will be leaving shortly, and in order to prevent that you'll be missing me severely, this weblog is brought into being to make sure that you will stay up-dated from my adventures on the other side of the world.
As you know, I am going to study in Berkeley for the coming semester. I am really looking forward to experiencing American culture/student life/travelling and I'm just hoping that the States aren't gonna suffocate this girl by all the impressions it will make... Anyways, as the time for leaving this lovely rainy country is approaching, I'm also getting more and more frightened by the idea of studying abroad ALL BY MYSELF (!!!). Luckily most things are arranged by now (just need to book a flight, minor detail...), so the only thing which I need to prepare myself for now is packing... Which of course shouldn't take that long as I can only carry 20 kilos or so with me :( So that means goodbye to my extensive clothing collection... However, I will most presumaby survive all these troubles caused by a small suit case because chances are that I will be able to borrow some stuff from my room mate since we'll be sharing a closet anyways...
No doubt adaptations to life as I know it have to be made, but on the other hand, I'm sure that those things will be done without any (ok, maybe with a few...) complaints, as I hope and expect that studying in the States for a semester will be an experience which I wouldn't want to have missed. But you will hear my opinion on that in 6 months I guess.
So for now, I hope you will enjoy reading my stories and I will do my best to write nice ones :P. Moreover, if you feel like it, please keep me updated from your adventures as well - either back home or elsewhere in the world, in the case of other exchange people - so that I don't get homesick too much...
