We are down to single digits...
9 days. 9 work days. We will be unemployed in less than 2 weeks. This is when the terror sets in. Yet I still feel as busy at work as I did 3 months ago. I'm not sure when things are going to feel real, but it must be soon. We're figuring out budgets, insurance, moving, selling furniture, last minute appointments. All while finding time to grab drinks with friends. Every weekend. It feels like the last month of college all over again. I don't think my body can handle it.
We're looking forward to a little more than a month of "free" time before we make our hop over the Atlantic, though undoubtedly, a good portion of it will consist of packing, driving to Michigan, unpacking, cleaning, packing, driving to Wisconsin, packing, loading a moving truck, driving back to Michigan, unpacking a moving truck, driving to Ohio, and driving to Michigan again (I hope that sentence was enjoyable). We plan to jam as much family and friends time in as we can and hope to make time for baseball and breweries. 😁 We need some springtime!
If you've calculated correctly, this means that we will be in Europe in 50 DAYS! So far we have about a week of our trip planned. We will be flying out on May 15th through Boston and Lisbon to London. We'll be heading south for the first part of our trip with the intention of enjoying the good weather in Spain and Italy (and waiting for the good weather to reach the north). Most of Spain is planned, and we will head to Italy afterward. We have a tentative plan to do a somewhat counterclockwise tour of about 15 different countries. But we want to make sure we leave a bit of flexibility in our schedule in case we want to adjust while we're there. We bought a train pass and plan to use it up!
I'll do my best to keep this blog updated as we make more plans and kick off our unemployed voyage! Stay tuned for our big adventure!
