After 18 months of planning I would love to say I'm totally prepared for the trip. We are more or less 30 days out and I am sweating bullets over my language skills, money, luggage, etc. All those little things that start adding up into one great looming mess of angst.
I have no doubt the trip will be a blast, I am just horrible at dealing with the pre-trip jitters. Blame the control freak in me...
BTW, in French my nickname of "Mal" means BAD. Oh joy.
