That's right, another adventure, another blog.
It's now 5 days until I officially fly to my new home in Spain and 4 days until I have to spend a night in a hotel panicking that I'll miss my flight the next morning. The last time I had to get a flight on my own, I woke up in bed in Wakefield at the moment that my flight was leaving the runway in Manchester airport, so I think my worrying is valid.
As usual* I'm very unprepared and equally panicky. I should probably let you know where I'm going as it's not in my 'true but not that informative' blog title. This part of my year abroad I'll be in Oviedo in North Western Spain and contrary to common belief/musical numbers, the rain in Spain falls mainly in Oviedo which suits a redhead like me perfectly. Also if anyone is wanting to visit (no pressure) it's not the easiest of places to get to and flights are only from Stanstead. I think I probably just dissuaded any potential visitors but I'll be there, waiting.
I guess having already been away for 3 months I am less worried than I was before Paris, but I am still sad to be leaving again however if the last 3 months are anything to go by, I'm sure it's gunna fly by. Hopefully now I carted a case as heavy as 2 of me, half full of things I didn't really need to Paris, I will pack more sensibly. I say this, yet I know as soon as I open an empty suitcase I think of a thousand useless things that I might wake up one day and spontaneously need and suddenly my case is full.
These past 2 weeks have mainly been spent catching up with people, walking my dog, watching re-runs of Come Dine With Me** and not getting prepared in any way, so I should probably at least think about getting ready, maybe tomorrow.
Moving away again is scary, but the amount of support I had when I was in Paris was awesome and as long as you don't all do a runner whilst I'm in Spain I'm sure I'm going to have an equally amazing time and I'll be sure to keep you up to date on all my clumsy goings on and the awkward situations I get myself into.
Happy Thursday :)
