In one week, I’ll be flying over the Atlantic, on my way to studying at Stellenbosch University for 4.5 months in South Africa. Below is a picture of my campus – beautiful Dutch architecture set upon a backdrop of mountains, 45 minutes easy of Cape Town. I’m a bit anxious, but for now, I’m enjoying life in my comfort zone at home with my friends and family. Before I know, I’ll be living my life as a Squirrel at Stellenbosch University (yes, that is their mascot!) with 31 other strangers who will hopefully become lifelong friends.
