Countdown - 1 Month

One month from today, I leave for Germany.

I'm excited. Nervous, and excited. Mostly nervous because I've never been away from home for quite this long. Excited for the same reason. However, between my move from San Francisco to Washington, DC and this vacation, I realize that I don't really know where home is or what I miss the most. I don't know what I'm supposed to miss. I'm not sure how silly I am being.

I'm thinking about packing light. I'm convinced this is the best thing, as no amount of clothing or books or preparation will be able to satisfy me for a full two and a half months. Lets keep it real - I don't have 72 pairs of underwear to bring even if I wanted to bring them.

So the countdown begins. This is my blog.

I hope you enjoy it.

PS: A "berliner" is a German-style pastry. If you know anything about me at all, you know this is the perfect name for me.
