The Transatlantic Journey

Our journey began this morning before sunrise. At 3:50am, a taxi took us to the airport. We boarded the flight to Atlanta and the excitement was becoming a reality. Making it to Atlanta was a relief with all the later flights full, but left us with 10 hours of waiting time. As we relax in the Delta Skyclub lounge, excitement and nervousness builds. Soon we will depart for Prague...

We are now safely in Vienna after making our way from Prague. Matthias picked us up at the train station and assisted with our 200lbs of luggage. We're exhausted and can't yet comprehend this new language around us. We'll awake tomorrow and begin our new adventure.

Looking Ahead

It’s about 2 ½ months before my departure to Austria and the reality is beginning to hit me. With the marathon, engagement and wedding planning, preparation for Austria has taken a back seat recently. Each day at my job seems to get longer and longer and I’m really looking forward to the new experiences that await me. I will be located in the small town of Wieselburg in Lower Austria. My school, pictured above, is called Francisco Josephinum and is a boarding school for students interested in agriculture, food technology and bio technology.
