Currently chilling in Starbucks.

In Aberdeen, Scotland.

WHAT.

I must admit, it’s a little odd being the one with a foreign accent!! People can always tell right off that I’m an American – not that I mind, it’s just weird! Anyways, I’ve been here about a full week now! I flew from Houston through Amsterdam to Aberdeen this past Sunday, and I started work on Monday morning! Yep, no rest for me! It’s all good though – this past week at work has been mostly settling in anyways and getting to meet everyone. Everyone’s so awesome here!! Weird things I am getting used to include money(I’m finally getting to the point where I don’t have to squint at my coins to figure out how much each is!), cars being on the opposite side of the road…and loads of phrases that take me a minute to figure out what they mean!

Still though…I love it here!! I really should write a longer entry(describing my grand beach adventure today…in the rain…but it was still awesome!! And talking about taking lovely walks in the fall-like crisp weather EVERY DAY, rejoicing and communing with our glorious LORD!) but I think I’ve been at Starbucks long enough. Time to go and grab some dinner. Somewhere.

To all you back in the States, hugs all around! Well, virtual hugs.

Cheers!
