Hello Everyone!
My name is Lauren Williams (I'm sure most of you know that by now, but as I myself am terrible with names some of you might have forgotten), I am a Sophomore studying U.S History. The purpose of this post is to share with you all how I am preparing for the trip. One of the most difficult things for most people will be cutting down their suitcase to only one week worth of clothing and belongings, however, given that out of my entire wardrobe I probably wear the same 5 things over and over again I don't think packing will be an issue for me (hopefully). For me the hardest part about preparing myself for the trip will be making sure I am budgeting myself enough now so that I have plenty of money while in Europe. Also I have this irrational fear that when I leave my dog will think that I abandoned her, and that by the time I get back she either won't remember me or hold a grudge hat I left her for so long.
