Hello all! Welcome to my blog on my travels abroad. A special thanks to my father, Steve Obaid, for the blog title, inspired by a recent viewing of the classic Casablanca (Sorry Jessie, kARABIC mOBAIDrocco seemed a bit overkill).
I will be using this blog to update family and friends on my whereabouts, experiences, and reflections. At this point it is unclear what internet access will be like, but I hope to semi-regularly post pictures and updates.
I will be leaving the country tomorrow afternoon to spend a few days in Paris, adjusting to time changes, reacquainting myself with french, meeting up with friends, and exploring. My program officially begins on Sunday the 29th, where we begin with a week of orientation before being placed in homestays.
Talk to you on the other side of the Atlantic!
love,
Karin
Hi Karin!
ReplyDeleteLoving the background so far. And the title. Did Carly spoil the ending for you??
I bet you're somewhere over the Atlantic now!
Update often!

P.S. I think I have to comment using my AIM screen name... Embarrassing. Please note the creative capitalization.
