So far, here's what I know (and the fact that I can sum it up in nine bullet points should be a warning):
1) On June 8th, I'm getting on a plane to Germany to study abroad for two months.
Me traveling, but not to Germany...yet. Photo cred: Maggie White
2) I will be in Erfurt, Germany.
It's a little red dot but it's gonna be my little red dot!
Here's hoping these bad boys are universal.
The above is the extent of my soccer (football) knowledge.
I see you, Heidi Klum.
However, Mark Twain did say: "I never knew before what eternity was made for. It is to give some of us a chance to learn German." So I'm going to take that as I will not be mastering the language in these next three weeks...
6) Boyd is coming with me. If you haven't met Boyd, he's a bunny. With a mustache. If you followed his adventures in Italy....the bunny's back.
What's up, Arzt? (German word for doctor)
7) If you haven't seen this video...you're welcome.
A unicorn could majestically appear AND YOU WOULD MISS IT. YOU SUCK STOP.
I believe in the message, and so I'm taking this trip as an opportunity to "look up". As much as I want to share moments with friends from home, I want and need to be fully present for this experience. I won't have WiFi in my apartment or at the university, so if I suck at getting back to you (download Viber, send me snippets of your pretty voice!), I apologize in advance. I won't fall off the face of the earth (my mother would never let that happen), but if you don't hear from me in a couple of days, know that I'm off observing. Or living. Or lost somewhere in Europe (totally possible, can I get a GPS embedded in my tooth or something?).
8) I don't know what I'm doing, but, when do I ever?

I like to call this look "perpetual state of confusion"
9) I'm bringing my hammock. "Eno" I will find room for it in my suitcase (ba dum dum chhhh).
Join me as I adventure, struggle, succeed, make friends and potentially offend (through my poor German skills and my inability to adequately describe what is happening outside of occurrences with milk) the peoples of Europe.
