off to the wall!


i'm about to leave on my four day trip to beijing and shanghai and i'm incredibly excited.

I AM GOING TO THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA!!

how amazing is that? i am struggling to find the words to describe my emotions. i am overwhelmed with gratitude for all that i have been given, for all i've seen and for all i've yet to do. i can hardly believe i have made it this far, its been an incredible dream. so a huge thanks to all who have helped me to take advantage of this opportunity and for supporting me throughout this journey. there are so many who are unable to go on semester at sea, let alone to the great wall of china.

so from the bottom of my heart, as i am running out the door for breakfast, THANK YOU. a million times over.




thank you, thank you, thank you.
