My (Impatient) Pre Departure Post
With five days to go until I fly out (my first ever solo flight and it’s nine hours over an ocean, woohoo) most of my packing is done, or at least, I’ve stuffed my embarrassingly small sweater collection into a suitcase along with a few pairs of jeans and will likely procrastinate on the rest (chargers, shoes,…
