Ally’s Pre-Departure Post

Another week has flown by this year and suddenly I’m only hours away from stepping foot in London for the first time. It is honestly incredible that this trip, and spring break, is here. It seems like only yesterday I got into Ohio State and now I am about to depart on my first Study Abroad and finally see London, a city I’ve always dreamed of.

It is stressful packing for a trip like this. The weather has been changing frantically, so I’m hoping I was able to pack for every possibility. It was incredible as I was planning my outfits for the week that I am really going to wear them to see the amazing sites around the city, that I packed clothes I’m going to make amazing memories in.

I’m super excited to fly across the Atlantic for the first time. Honestly, I’m also nervous, but I still can’t wait for the experience of stepping off a long flight and knowing I made it to London, plus I love flying so it’s going to be fun.

I am so excited to experience London as every designer should, through sketching. It will be amazing to fill all the pages of buildings and experiences from each part of the city. I know that the sketchbook I bring will be one that I’ll hold close to my heart forever.

Now I have to figure out how to get some sleep before all the excitement starts tomorrow.
