At the Airport

Just sitting in the Maple Leaf lounge waiting for my flight to Tokyo. I board at 11 am so that means I have one hour to enjoy the free food and drinks here, champagne anyone? (just kidding dad). I just had a tearful goodbye with my parents - my dad even cried - and it's so weird to think I won't be seeing them for 5 and a half months. I am so thankful to them for allowing me this opportunity; I wouldn't be able to do this trip without them. I can see my plane from the lounge right now which is nice. This is so surreal.

I have been dreaming about this for over a year now and my dreams are about to come true.

Here's to hoping for safe and stress free flights!
