So with two and a half weeks to go until I'm boarding the plane I've started thinking about practical things. I've sorted out insurance (I would suggest searching around but I ended up going to Endsleigh for mine as it is geared for people who take year abroads due to it's student nature). Then my next challenge was finding a suitcase that would be big enough to fit the kitchen sink in (not literally) but lightweight enough to not ruin the 20kg limit too much! After a wee bit of searching I settled on this bag because it is so light and large! I will still probably have trouble packing, especially as I want to take my ski boots and everything...but that's a challenge for another day.
Still feeling pretty happy about going abroad, especially as one of my closest friends is coming out for New Years with me so that'll be amazing! My next task is to make a list of everything I want to achieve while I'm out there so I don't get out there and get too absorbed in other stuff and forget all my previous goals.
Don't think there's anything else to update on apart from just general excitement about year abroad, it's really starting to feel real now!
