I made it!

So after almost a full 24 hours of being in transit from Seattle to Hannover, Germany (by way of Chicago and London) I have finally arrived. My trip sucked (to put it lightly), but i'll leave out the details for now simply because i do not want to relive the nightmare that is traveling internationally. the only way i can characterize traveling is that is freaking sucks bad. man i hate it.

i am staying with my mom's brother, Wode, for the next week. he is the man, and his wife, Kirsten, is also very cool. they have made my first few hours in germany relatively easy. they have been accomodating in every sense of the word.

woke up at 6 am (german time) and have just been trying to get myself settled in and adjusted to the time difference. my body just feels very groggy. when i woke up this morning i felt as though i could sleep for 10 more hours, but at the same time i was wide awake. just a very weird feeling.

so for today i plan on just relaxing and settling in here in Bad Salzuflen, Germany. i need to get my eating and sleeping patterns back on track.

i wanted to use this post mainly as a test to see how things would work/look on my blog. hopefully it turns out, please feel free to comment! i would love to hear from anyone who might be reading this.

until next time! love you all!
