So the past few days have been so much fun and very emotional. I appreciate everyone’s love and support so much! I’m so thankful that I have such amazing friends and family. I have been completely overwhelmed with the amount of love I’ve gotten from everyone. You guys do not understand how much I will miss each and every one of you! I don’t think I will get homesick in Australia, but the hardest part will be missing all my amazing friends, and my terrific family. It’s going to be difficult, I know! I’m getting myself ready for it. But just remember: You’re all invited to the COMING HOME PARTY too!

I’ve started the packing process. I think it’s going to be okay. And I think I might even make my one suitcase and backpacking pack goal! :-O Maybe? We’ll see.
