My Ramblings 2.0 (now in a delicious European Flavor)

In and around Europe

My roommates and I at Niagara Falls this past fall. All four of us are studying abroad in England this semester.

And it finally becomes firm reality that I will be studying, bumming, backpacking, biking, eating, dancing, frolicking---all in all making my way across the UK and Europe for the next five months. (In all probablity, I will pass out from sheer awe and excitement once I set foot on foreign soil.) Something once a dream is now in front of me, so all that I have left to do is to walk the path and enjoy the journey.

I will be studying at the University of Leicester in Leicester, England. I leave January 13th and return May 18th. The best ways to contact me will be: by email at tjonell@kent.edu; AIM with focacciarossa; and eventually post (but I'll have to get back to you on that once I have my address). (Calling me by phone is pretty much out of the question.) Please send me plenty of luck because, being that it is me across the pond, I'll need it!!
