My first blog

This is a blog for my loved ones at home to keep them updated on what’s happening in Russia. I don’t know who will be reading this, but I hope to update this biweekly. 

Today is Wednesday the 16th and I leave on the 19th, so I have begun to feel pensive but definitely excited. After I leave on Saturday, I have a 8 hr flight to Amsterdam with about a two hour layover and then I have a 2hr and 50 min flight to St. Pete. 

Leaving what you know makes you very introspective. When I was little I was always the kid at summer camp who didn’t miss her parents until she saw them at the end of camp. However, I have become accustomed to being in constant contact with my mom and sister. I am curious to see what it will be like for both my family and I to have limited contact.
