So, today I started this blog. The reason for that is very simple. I am headed for the United States of America in a couple of months and this will be my way of updating everyone I know and love of my situation.
Even though I live in Holland I have ties with the states. My mother was born and raised there and all my family from my mothers side is still there. So I dicided to take a gapyear and visit with them for 3 months.
I'll be starting my trip in Tennessee by my second cousine. I'll be there for 2 weeks. Then I'll be taking the train to Salt Lake City, Utah and visit with my grandpa. I'll be there for about 10 days. My last 2 months I'll be staying with my aunt in San Diego, California. I can't wait. For me California is the place to be. Eventhough I've never even been there before.
Last year I graduated from High School and decided to take the gapyear. I couldn't have make a better decision. I started working in the fashionstore Mexx right after my exams. It was pretty sure I would make it anyways. After working there for a couple of months I had saved enough money for my plane ticket. I booked my ticket on the 23e of october.
About a week later I told my boss of my travel plans. I said I would be leaving in March. They didn't like this news. They didn't want to lose me as a imployer. Which of course gave the nice feeling of being valued. But they were and still are happy for me. eventhough they still sometimes try to make me change my mind. But there's no use. When / if I get back from America I'll be starting the study of Lifestyle Advisor and won't be able to work there then either. I am sad to leave there though. But this trip will be great for me.
The only thing I'm worried about is becoming homesick. 3 months is a long time to be away of everything you know and love. But then again... I'll be with my family in the United States of America. Which is exactly what I want.

Hi Babe,
I like your site. Sometimes, too much personal information though.
You know I'm going to miss you like crazy. Who's going to come into my bedroom and talk with me at 12midnight when you are gone?
Who's going to make me laugh with her cute comebacks?
Who's going to enjoy my cooking as much as you do?
Who's going to ask me which book to read when you've already finished one?
Who's going to argue with me?
Who's going to fill your place at the table?
Who's going to keep your father in stiches?
Who's going to make him laugh so much he cries?
Who's going to miss you? I am, me, mom!!!!
But, I'm so glad you have the opportunity to go. Really.
