Whoa... I'm an exchange student now?

This summer has raced by. The berries have ripened and dropped from their low hanging boughs, the kids have begged me to take them swimming so many times that I have begun to actually enjoy swimming, both the hay bales and I have dried and turned golden in the long heat of June and July, and the hiking at dawn has shown me some of the most beautiful sunrises of Oregon I have ever seen. I've been busy! During the past six months, I have been preparing to spend my senior year studying abroad in the incredible country of Germany with the Congress Bundestag Youth Exchange scholarship by finishing high school early and enjoying every drop of life here in good ol' Oregon. Despite my best efforts, it seems to be only coming clear to me this week that I am actually taking the international trip and I am actually finished going to high school in the United States. WOWZA!
I hope you will join me in my travels as I navigate life in Deutsch during the 2015/16 school year!
