Hello People of the Interwebs!
I have to say I have been completely overwhelmed with generosity over the past month! There has been so much support financially from family and friends, and I am so grateful to have raised nearly $400! My thank you cards cannot express enough gratitude for everyone's donations, kind thoughts, and well wishes.
My winter break is almost over, and soon I will back to school for my final full semester at Georgia State University. These past few weeks I have been hard at work on planning my trip to Europe: sending out Hanukkah donation cards/thank you's, filling out university travel forms, applying for study abroad scholarships, and putting a Paypal donation button on this website (*hint hint, wink wink*).
Besides letting my family and friends know about all the adventures I'm having in Europe, this blog will focus on finding the money needed to travel, specifically what this experience has taught me about traveling on a college student's budget and my attempt/success to fund raise my way to France. In the past trips I have taken were either paid for by someone else or funded by student loan, but this time it will be different.
This time I will use all of the wit, planning, and most likely begging I can possibly summon in order to fully fund this trip without a single dollar of additional debt to my name. This is my New Year's resolution, and I am prepared to tackle it at full force!
Peace, Love, and Paris ~ Naomi
