In six short days I will have traveled outside the United States alone for the first time in my life. I will have also set foot in India for the first time. Come to think of it, it'll be a first for leaving my dog behind for an extended period. She'll be staying with grandma and will be fine I'm sure.
It would be less than honest to say I have no reservations. I wouldn't classify myself as a risk taker. And I would classify myself as shy. So, to travel so far afield alone is a huge step. It is a risk of sorts and I will be forced to talk to people I don't know. The good news is that I won't be alone once I arrive. I'll be staying with a dear friend from college until I leave for Nepal.
