Welcome to Trekking Student

The BBC logo

So, I am typing up my first blog ever while watching BBC World News and reminiscing about my past adventures to the Mediterranean region in 2007, British Isles and Canada in 2005, then going way back to Bahamas in 2003 and Mexico in 2002. Gosh, I missed having the travel bug, but I am so excited to be able to have the great opportunity to study abroad in the Holy Land for a full semester. I will be attending Jerusalem University College (aka American Institute of Holy Land Studies) in Jerusalem, Israel and its going to be totally new, kinda scary, but totally worth it. I still can't believe that in 20 days I will be traveling 6421 miles as the crow flies from Minneapolis-St.Paul to Jerusalem. Now, I am shopping for pairs of zip-off desert proof pants, and my many books along with many ways to pack all I need for 3 and a half months in one suitcase and a carry-on.


Can't wait to jump on the plane and become an international student!
