so! in twenty four hours i will be on a plane, headed to buenos aires, argentina, sometimes referred to as "the paris of south america." i'm so excited :) will be gone for precisely a month. not much to say in this first post...just creating a blog for whenever i travel. hopefully i'll be able to update this...semi-often XP mostly packed, but still pretty clueless on how i'll be spending my time outside of classes. definitely need to brush up on my (conversational...and evangelism?) spanish.
got information about where/who i'm staying with for the next few weeks :D i'm going to have three host siblings! around my age. and they replied to my email :)
so...here's to improving my spanish, exploring a beautiful city and country, eating amazing food, meeting new people, and maybe even witnessing about my faith to someone within the next month :D
(found this. kinda neat :) http://www.losnavegantes.net/puente.html )
read john 14:27 this morning when i was still feeling a bit stressed from my lack of packing and preparation (some of which is still true at this moment).
[Jesus says,] "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. I do not give as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not be afraid."
let God's peace reign. no matter where you are :)
