Well readers, I've got just under ten days until my departure- can you believe how time has flown? I've been working on final preparations and packing these past couple of days: I've gone to the bank to order some Chinese currency, gotten a visa card, and done some seriously hard-core shopping for summer clothes (i.e. bought a million and one sun dresses). I don't know how I'm going to fit it all into my suitcase. The little blue EF tours backpack is perfectly sized for carry-ons, though.
I've also been talking a lot with the students I'm going to be traveling with via facebook. It's been great to get to know the American kids, and even more intersing to talk to the Indian students. Who knew cricket was so popular? We're friends already, so I can't imagine how close we'll be by the time we depart for home. Also, the fifteen hour flight is sure to help- people bond through trauma.
Some other news: I've been selected to be filmed in a documentary EF is making of our tour to China! Myself and one of the boys, Jason from Hawaii, will be representing America, along with two of the Indian students. I won't lie, I'm very excited- I've never been followed around by a camera crew before!
