peaceful frenzy

In exactly 16 days we leave for the first leg of our journey to Barcelona. It's amazing how 16 days can feel dreadfully long and excitingly short all at the same time. When I think of everything we need to get done beforehand, I panic. When I think of 16 more days of living out of suitcases, I panic. So much to do and so much of it out of our hands.

And yet...a strange peace about all of it.

Saying goodbye to friends and family, preparing all of our visa paperwork, packing and unpacking a dozen times, raising support, learning a language, communicating with our team.

And resting.
