Two days left in California

Two days left in California and I am excited, stressed, and nervous.

I am excited for all the great things that are coming my way shortly.
I am stressed out because I will miss my family and know that I will experience a sense of culture shock I have never seen before.
I am nervous because any number of situations may arise which I have not prepared for.

The only thing that matters now is that this is happening!

I will be leaving tuesday morning and will be taking four flights in one day. Seeing as I have never been on a plane for more than one hour at a time, I am a bit nervous. I am flying from Los Angeles to San Francisco to Munich to Frankfurt to Florence. The entire day of travel will be about 20 some hours.
Hope all works out well but like my mom always says, "if its your time then there is nothing you can do about it."

I just hope its not my time but at least I will have good company waiting for me on the other side.

I really wish that my Father, Grandfather, and Grandmother where around to experience this live changing journey with me but I have to carry all their lessons in my heart and remember that I will always have them with me because without them there would be no me.

Next time I post, I will either be traveling or living half way across the world.

Much love,
Jason
