Heading Out

I've been told that people write blogs when they go abroad. So here's mine! Mostly I'm excited about it because of the great title I have courtesy of and props to Logan Rains. Get it?! Anyway, tomorrow I fly away to New York so that the next day I can go to ISTANBUL (I'd say "not Constantinople" but it's an overused add-on). I'll be in Istanbul for about a week with some lovely people and then head to KENYA for a semester of studying.  (Don't worry, I have lots of madlibs for the planes.) Once in Kenya, I'll take classes (Swahili, Politics and Culture of Kenya, Comparative Philosophy, and Male and Female Creativity) and intern at an NGO. Kenya believe it?! Nope. Hopefully this blog will help me remember some of the adventures I have so I believe it when I come home in December. Weeeeeeeeeee!
