My bag is officially packed! After laying out all of my clothes, checking off a lengthy list of to-do's, and putting it all together, I am ready for India.

After receiving advice on long flights from cousins, aunts, and friends I feel I am ready for the long journey ahead. From Minneapolis our group will be flying to Chicago where we will have a short layover, from Chicago will will fly to Frankfurt, Germany. After another layover in Germany we will make our final flight to our destination, Chennai India.

Thank you to all who have given me advice, and kept me in your prayers! I plan to blog as often as possible, so keep an eye out for new posts!

Hey everyone!

I cannot believe I leave in 6 days for India! I know it is going to be a trip of a life-time. Already I have made several lists, and have been checking off things daily.
For those who are unaware, I will be traveling to India for J-term. I will be studying my third theology, the course title is Religious Heritage of India. Our class will be exploring Islam, Hinduism, and Christianity and how the three religions work within one country.
I know I will learn so much while I am in India, and my life will be forever changed!
