Spent an hour or so today locating and messaging people from Barcelona on Couchsurfing today. Sent out about 7 or so requests and I'm hopeful I'll get a few responses. I know more often than not it's hit or miss so we'll see. Browsing through profiles it really hit home for the first time today that in just over a month I'll be in Europe again, in Spain and England and then Amsterdam. While it is definitely exciting; so much unwritten and unknown, it's also quite frightening letting go of everything and trying to start all over. I've got some good friends over there across the pond, and I know they'll be there to help me along the way. I've also been feeling a bit of anxiety as the gravity of what is to happen transcends. At home here in Seattle I've been dealing with some personal issues. Trying to get over the loneliness that often comes with the Holidays. It has definitely been one hell of a week...like I was saying in the last post, I feel like there is so much to do before I leave....will I have enough money? Will I be able to find a job over there? Will everything here in Seattle wrap up smoothly? Will there be any hitches in my departure? Can I really make it in Amsterdam? All good questions, but like most things in life, all unknown answers. Until next time. Ciao.
Zach
