Hello Everyone! 
I decided to make my own blog for my trip to France & Spain to fill everyone in on all the wonderful details! I just returned from Chicago where I had to go to get my visa. I am a bit nervous about going directly from France to Spain as I will not be leaving the Schengen area and when my visa expires while I am in Spain I will have to leave the Schengen area and re-enter as told to me by the lady at the French consulate. However, I could not be more excited for this new adventure in my life and with Christmas coming around the corner, I hope to get some of the things I will be needing for this trip. I am feeling so blessed to be able to have this opportunity. I hope to be able to visit my host family from high school while I am over there. 
Thankfully, there are wonderful websites like this for me to share these wonderful times with all of my friends and family!
