I have decided to begin a blog as an easy way to keep both a log of my trip/semester and as a way to let those of you back at home know what I have been doing and what I have run into. I don't expect many people to read this as I don't want it to become some kind of a showy travel guide, but I do hope that it is a convenient way for me to update friends and family and entertain those of you who are bored of scanning Facebook posts late at night (you know who you are). Yes, I realize that this semester abroad appears to be, and mostly is, a selfish venture and will be a ton of fun. However, I hope that it will not remain a time only for my benefit, (though it will be a great opportunity to learn more about Europe during my studies), but that it would be one in which God could use me as a witness of Himself, and a source of encouragement and blessing to the other believers with me. Ultimately, I pray that during this trip I will strengthen my relationship with Him as I learn to let His Spirit live through me (Gal. 2:20). My hope is that this blog will be a blessing to all those who read it.
From across the ocean,
Hayden
