Ready to start my journey

Today is my first day in a journey of a lifetime. I will be leaving my home of Randolph, Iowa to live in Ostrava, Czech Republic for the next four months. I will be traveling from Omaha to Minneapolis to Amsterdam and finally to Prague. From Prague will take a train to Ostrava. I have been looking forward to this trip for several months. I have studied Czech for a year, but I am sure my knowledge will not be enough. I am nervous, but anxious to see how well I adapt a foreign culture. I'm sure it will not be like living in Randolph.

I'll be getting on a plane in a few hours. I have packed my bags. I have written letters to my friends. I've walked around the farm trying to capture where everything in my mind.

I should get some sleep. It will be a long trip.
