And it begins..

My flight is at 10:45 am from DFW to Atlanta to Rome to Florence. Overall it is a 24 hour flight. I'm honestly most nervous about having to sit next to some older man that likes to talk about anything and everything (including how much he likes the sunsets in the mornings because it reminds him of his childhood). Dont get me wrong that's sweet and everything but I rather pretend to sleep and not deal with strangers.

My family tells me I have a fear of grocery stores like walmart and whole foods. And I'm beginning to agree. They are ridiculous (the grocery stores)! So many people banging into each other with their carts with no remorse! Grocery Stores are crazy houses and I rather just sit in the car and people watch. In my opinion, an airplane is like a packed grocery store. Except you're stuck next to an annoying stranger for the ENTIRE flight. Maybe I will be lucky this time and sit next to a calm quiet elderly lady or better yet a tan surfer from California. That wouldn't be as bad :)

Traveling in the air is just not my thing, period. But it's the only way to get across that pond. That was my rant for the day thanks for listening. Once I get to Florence all my travel fears and anxieties will diminish and I can focus on this new world I will be living in. Can't wait! Next time I post something I will be breathing Italian air :)

Ciao for now!
