The Pilot

(You know, like the first episode of a TV series)

As a follower of all things Carrie Bradshaw, I have always wanted my own journal column. 

Since a New York newspaper is a bit out of my league, I figured a blog is second best.

As an incoming student at the Danish Institute of Study Abroad, I decided to start a blog dedicated towards sharing my experiences abroad with friends, family, and everyone else!

Luggage is packed, tickets are booked, and passport is ready!

Before beginning my semester in Copenhagen, my travel companion and good friend, Morgan,

and I have decided to treat ourselves to a three day trip to the city of lights...PARIS!

In my head I'm picturing something out of the Hills. I doubt I'll be riding on the back of a motorcycle with the Tour Eiffel in the background like Lauren, but I suppose a stroll down the Champs-Elysees isn't too far fetched. 

I have looked forward to this semester since my first day at Bradley University. However, the night before the trip, I am filled with a mixture of emotions. Excited, terrified, nervous, and ready. 

Sad to leave friends and family, but excited for the adventures that await.

So, on here I will chronicle my adventures and experiences, everything from living with a Danish host family to nights out in Copenhagen. 

Stay tuned, friends.

you know you love me,

xoxo

Allen Abroad.
