Ok, so since I got a little ahead of myself... my second post will be an introduction to myself.
I'm a senior marketing major, comm minor at the Great University on the GREATEST of Lakes (UMD). And if all goes according to plan I'll graduate in the spring. And (hopefully) subsequently find a decent job that will have me.
I've studied abroad and traveled abroad a couple times before. I blame my mom for my passion for travel. As kids my mom would take my brother and I packed from the floor to the roof in a tiny '87 Ford Escort (But it had a sun roof!) and we took road trips all over the U.S. (and through Canada), so I've seen the 48 continental United States. We then went to Istanbul, Turkey when I graduated high school, to visit my cousin (who had been living there for 8 years). Next, I toured Greece with the J-term trip from UMD, so I've been pretty much everywhere in mainland Greece. The next year I studied abroad for a semester in New Zealand and traveled to Australia afterwards. And most recently, this past summer, I traveled with my family back to the land of my forefathers, Finland. And now... India. I can't really say which of my travels have been my favorite, they're all so different and special in many ways.
But it's only two days until I leave for India and I'm bouncing off the walls. Not to mention, I've been itching to travel for over four months now. I'm even looking forward to the experience of the 20+ hour flight time, which is the longest I've had, even with New Zealand...
Back to reading... which I've been conveniently avoiding by visiting with family.
