All right, so I found out today that my host family doesn't speak English.
People have been asking me all along if I'm nervous or scared and I haven't been until today when I found out this information. Suddently, BAM, it hit me - you are really going to be alone, girlfriend, taking care of yourself and having to learn. Haha, I'm such an arrogant American, aren't I, assuming they would speak English? At any rate, I realized in a very dramatic way that I am doing this "for realsies," as a friend of mine would say.
I also stumbled upon some other blogs today with tons of beautiful pictures of different parts of the world and experienced this intense desire to be one with nature, to live in the woods, run through meadows, climb mountains, go canoeing. I've always lived in big cities, but somehow now I feel like I have to live in nature before I can earn living in a city....like I have to give Mother Nature her due before I decide the man-made Cities are better...
If nothing else, I'm sure it's cheaper.
