Welcome!

Fellow Travelers,

The purpose of this blog is to help each other prepare for this Europe trip.

It is designed to help up support each other in our physical, mental, academic, and spiritual preparation for this trip. I know some people are on track, others are working two or more full times jobs... I know we are all busy. That is the definition of a student.

BUT, I really believe that we can make this trip a life changing experience. The more we prepare, the more fascinating, amazing, and meaningful this trip will be. Please check out the blog, and leave comments or e-mail me with your thoughts. Lets make this the most amazing trip and group Brother Anderson has ever taken.

I thought it would be fun and supportive to create a log of what you are doing to prepare, and then post it here.

For example, I've been trying to walk about 3-4 miles everyday. Also, I know some people have set up a reading schedule to finish The Western Humanities before we go.

So, I would like to set some common goals that we can support each other in.

My goals are:
- Be able to walk 3.5 miles an hour (1 mile every 17 minutes).

I would love comments, feed back, and any and all suggestions you might have! (Did I mention that I would LOVE comments and feedback?) I am new to this blog thing, so if someone who is more familiar with it would like to help, that would be amazing!

Thanks a million,
Susan Denker
