Only 4 days left!

I leave for India in 4 days!! I can't believe that it's so close! Usually around this time I would start to panic about the upcoming trip. I tend to get bad anxiety whenever I travel, but right now I find myself excited and not anxious at all. It's a weird feeling.

I mean don't get me wrong, I'm a little nervous about being in a new country and the culture shock that will go along with it. But that's normal. Whenever you go somewhere and don't really no what to expect, it's totally normal to get a little nervous about that.

My crazy abnormal freak outs are not there though. Me thinking about every possible thing that could go wrong, worrying about fitting in my plane seat, and so many other things that would plague me in the days leading up to me leaving are just gone.

I don't know what's change, but I like it. Maybe it's because of the weight loss and my increase of self confidence. I feel the same way I did when I studied abroad. Nervous but really really excited!

Have a great trip. India is culture shock for sure. But the fact that you will be with your brother and family will help. Have a safe trip!
