Lucky 13

I have 13 days left until I leave for my trip to England to Study Abroad. I am looking at packing lists and trying to make sure I have what I need and pre packing to see how much space I have in my suitcase leftover. Talking to people about traveling is intimidating because everyone is always saying, "Don't travel alone, look like a tourist, or draw attention to yourself," because you can get mugged or whatever. Sort of makes personal safety seem like a life and death situation. Leaving the United States for the first time in my life, alone, and female- the last thing I want to think about it how unsafe this could be. I want to be looking at this trip as exciting, not as an introduction to a new Taken movie. I took the itinerary we have and posted it on my desk to help me remember why I decided to do this in the first place.

Weather conditions during the month of June in England should be between 55* and70*- I hope California appreciates the summer they get.
