Arrival

After many months of organizing and waiting, I've finally arrived! I'm in Boston, Massachusetts, US of A! All for a little thing Glasgow Caledonian call Industrial Placement :O It's crazy but exciting and nerve racking stuff! On 10th July 2012, I headed off on my adventure. My flight stopped at Reykjavik in Iceland. There wasn't much ice though lol! And after 6 hours, I was in Boston. :)  


Met Nicole and headed to Kinross Road, my new home for the year. I'm crashing in her room until a room is free. The other placement students are leaving soon, which is a shame not getting to know them better :( but i'm sure they will be happy to get home to good old Scotland! The past few days have been great, getting to know the place with a little bit of help from Nicole and the others. I have gotten used to the "T", Bostons Subway system. Its pretty awesome, there are so many lines and so many places to go. I've also met people in NU Global Office, who are lovely :) I think they are pretty sad Heather is leaving, so I have to be a good replacement lol!


 I've sorted my bank account, my SS number and in the process of getting a SIM card and a phone that works with it! Also found  loads of places to visit in the future such as the Chessecake Factory, the Avenue which do $1 burgers on a Monday and the Goodwill store, where I got a new bag and shirt for my first day :) Can't wait to explore, learn and travel this year!
