Finally, my Virgin Atlantic flight touched down in England. It was a long bus ride to London but exciting nonetheless. As soon as we knew it we were driving on the opposite side of the road to begin the journey of the lifetime. Overwhelmed with excitement, I jumped off the bus, grabbed my luggage, and headed into the little hotel I would call home for three days. After that, it was off to explore. The first day I was on my own, meeting new people, finding my "group," and getting my first real "European" experience. Little did I know, I was in for it. Although English is their language, it did not make the cultural barrier any easier. I was not a fan of London, none of us really were. Was it because of the culture or because we were so eager to arrive in Italy, I'm not really sure. Regardless, the sights were amazing and it was here that I made my first friendships that will last a lifetime.
