At this point, I don't have a lot to say. I have no idea what I'm heading into. I've read pages and pages of handbooks and e-mails, but still lack basic knowledge like where exactly I'm going to live. Thus, I've adopted the strategy of waiting until I get there to figure it out. Probably not the best idea, but honestly, what else should I do?
I have delved into teaching myself the Romanian language, which is fun - after all, it's pretty easy at this point. I'm eager to get to Romania and learn that I'm pronouncing everything completely incorrectly.
Things I do know:
1. I'm leaving the U.S. next Tuesday, the 25th of September, on a flight route from Providence to New York to Bucharest.
2. I will be living in a town called Brasov, in Southern Transylvania.
Provided that I do have internet access at some point, I plan to update this blog frequently enough so that I have an outlet for things I'm thinking about, for stories, and for photos (of course). And also so that anyone who actually cares can stay in touch!
