This is exactly how I feel right now. I am so confused and anxious and excited!!! I am so confused as to where I should go. I have narrowed it down to 3 great options:
France-I know the basic language and culture, plus its your typical European experience
Italy-Don't know the language but the food would be absolutely incredible
Denmark-Have no idea about the language, but my friend Katrine is there, other than that...not sure what the country has to offer me except for cold, long winters!
I have met wonderful families from all three, and have decided to not read any more new messages I receive. If I keep reading them I will never make a decision...such an American, I know!
On the more positive side of things..... I did go get my International Drivers' Permit. Who knew all you had to do was bring a picture and sign a piece of paper and you can drive in about 80 more countries?! They must assume that since we know how to drive in the US, that we can drive just about anywhere. Sometimes...I think they are probably right.
I have a dear friend that I work with who has been lending an ear and some time, just so I can hear myself talk my thoughts out to myself...and for that, I am forever grateful. I woke up last night at 3 am having a panic attack. I was sweating so bad I thought the air conditioner had gone off. I immediately leaned over to see if I had gotten any emails...none. I laid there thinking about all kinds of things for about an hour. About all the things I will miss back home while I'm gone, what if I choose a certain place and I hate it?! I can't imagine hating anything about Europe, but what if one choice is better than the other and I make the wrong one!!?
