Welcome to my Blog!

So keeping in line with all of my amazing friends teaching overseas, I decided to start up a little blog to keep everyone up to date on my adventures in Brussels!

Just a quick background for anyone who doesn't know what I'm doing here, I was hired to be an intern in the Early Education Center of an International school in Brussels for a year. There are 5 other interns and we are distributed throughout the Nursery, Pre-Kindergarten, and Kindergarten divisions. I am not sure where I will be yet, but I will be happy with any age group!

I have to say - the anticipation of the actual moving day was much more manageable than I had imagined it would be. I had envisioned leaving my parents at the airport and crying like a baby, but not a tear was shed (until I got on the plane and read my Mom's plane letter of course haha). I had a 3 hour delay, but even that couldn't kill my excitement to get on the plane and get to Belgium. I was lucky to make my connecting flight in Montreal and even luckier that none of my baggage was lost in the quick layover between planes. I was able to sleep (without putting myself into a gravol induced coma!!) for over half of the flight, and spent the last few hours watching episodes of Modern Family and Angry Boys. When I finally landed in Brussels, getting my baggage and finding the car that my school had sent to pick me up went incredibly smoothly. I came straight to my apartment and began unpacking. I was able to get out for a little walk down to a corner store that sold wine, and picked some up for tonight (typical haha!). I am looking forward to meeting the rest of the interns tomorrow and exploring Brussels with them. I'll leave you with a few pictures of my apartment (and my wine of course).

From Brussels with love ♥
