Estoy empiezo sentir nerviosa

I will be in Ecuador in just over 2 weeks. It's slowly hitting me that I'll be leaving for six months for ECUADOR in 2 weeks and I'm slowly starting to freak out. I'm super excited, but also getting pretty nervous. Other people are also slowly arriving in their countries (Allie in Chile, Harrison/Cassandra/Yuka in Australia, Ashley in S. Africa even if she isn't from K) and it's slowly hitting me that everyone is going everywhere and we will literally all be spread out across the globe. Oh man. I don't know if you've ever noticed, but the world is a pretty big place. I'm excited to go to another part I've never been before! Somewhere completely different.
There's a reason I didn't want to go to Thailand, despite it's awesome program. I've been exposed to a lot of cultures by growing up in Hawaii. Unfortunately, the Hispanic population is very small so literally I've never really been exposed to it except for the occasional Mexican restaurant and Senora E-D and her crazy culture notes ("arre burriquito", jaja). It'll be interesting for me to finally meet this culture that most of the rest of the mainland is already relatively familiar with.
