One More Week!

I can't believe that this time one week from now, I will be in Costa Rica! I just learned that I have another cousin who is 16 and in my grade at my school. It will definitely be nice to know someone at school. When I received the information from AFS about my host family, it said my family had one dog. I have since learned that they have three puppies! They are still so small. I leave for Miami (my departure point) on Monday, so I am currently in the packing stage. This is typically really stressful for people, but luckily, I got most of it out of the way when I left Minnesota. At this point, I'm just deciding what NOT to bring, and that's not too bad. I'm truly surprised that I'm not completely freaking out this close to my departure. I would say I'm 95% excited and 5% nervous. I know that this is going to be an amazing experience!
