In Brazil day one

I am actually in Brazil. Amazing I should tell you. And the family I am staying with are adorable.

Tonight we are going to Copacabana and tomorrow me and Felipe are going with his friends to place called Cava Fria. I have no idea about the spelling but you get the idea.

What more to tell you...

I slept like 12 hours on my way here. I think it was for the best since the spirit here is Never sleep, never say no. I am stoked, and I think this is going to be more of an adventure than I ever thought it would be.

And Oh, It is so so so hot, I like. Yet the sun is coverd by the clouds. Well, time to eat something, I dont know what, the family is giving me.

Happy New Year and lots of Love
Emily

sleeping through pressure

Now, when I have so many things to be done it's almost funny that I fell asleep over an hour ago. I think I have to live with the fact that I am gonna miss something during my five-month-world-trip. But who needs all the material things anyways? As long as I have my passport and some cash I'll be fine, right?

The Day before Tomorrow

So, I'm leaving tomorrow. I can't really put my finger on how I feel. Terrified yet excited to death... something like that.

The thing is that it doesn't feel like I'm leaving. My spirit is right here, right now so it's hard to even imagine not being where I am. But hey, I am as stoked as a person can be at the same time!

So today is the day when everything needs to be done. I went to the gym one last time and now I need to finish my packing, write down all the addresses I need to send postcards, say goodbye to my friends, have my last dinner with the family, sleep in my own bed for the last time... you know, all that kind of stuff. I easily get sentimental when it comes to parting. But I'll be back one day, I just don't know when yet.

I am Emily

I'm finally gonna start doing this right. It's gonna be serious in every unserious way possible.

So I'm gonna start with introducing myself.

I am Emily.

I'm on my way to become something. What that is can only time tell, I'm just going with the flow right now, staring in Brazil in three days. I'm the biggest nerve-wracked person you could think of right now, but it's going to be awesome. Of that I am sure.


So yeah, jump on this joyride and follow me when I explore another side of the world, but most importantly, another side of me.
