After a very long flight, I have made it from London to South Africa. I have a place to sleep and am getting to know my new surroundings. I'm not going to lie, after a long flight, next to no sleep, and being somewhere so strange I'm feeling very overwhelmed. At this exact moment I would run away and come home if that were possible. I know this feeling will pass, but I sure do wish someone was here with me. Things are always less scary when there are two of you.
If you're following along with me, this would be a great time for an encouraging comment. (hint, hint...)
Tomorrow is orientation and after that, and a good night sleep, I should be better equipped to cope with life for the next month. My first impressions of South Africa are that it seems to be run down, vibrant, and the beach (which is 5 minutes from my apartment) is beautiful. O
