SFO -- LHR: Moving into my new home in Sussex

The Start of Something Good

Well, friends, here I am! At the start of what I hope is going to be a summer filled with incredible memories, great friends, amazing food, and God's goodness! 

As I sit here in my flat at the University of Sussex in Brighton, England, I am so incredibly thankful for the blessings that allowed me to be here: my parents for their enthusiasm, encouragement, and support--especially financial (!!), my Uncle Julian for delivering me here safely and taking time out of his schedule to fly over with me, and most importantly the Lord who has provided a way and opportunity for me to experience the summer of a lifetime!

I am here with the intention of studying physics (finishing 12 units of credit in 8 weeks) and I fully intend on using my newfound skills to calculate the velocity of the rate of travel to take me from Brighton to Paris, Edinburgh, Florence, and beyond!

Thanks for stopping by, I am so pleased to have you alongside me in this journey! Wishing each and every one of you were here to join me :)

Cheers and big hugs from Brighton to you!

xoxo, Amy

And away we go!
Taking off from SFO with Bonnee the Bear, comfy yoga pants, and my favorite travel partner, Uncle Julian!




After landing in Brighton, we spent the day touring the city; here we are at Brighton Pier

Officially University of Sussex Students!

Mission accomplished, the kids are here safe and sound!
Well done, Uncle Julian!

My humble abode
First time living by myself--the accommodations here are truly spoiling me!

A WHOLE closet to myself?!?! I could get used to this!

The most important room of the whole place :)
I am looking forward to many evenings of "self-catering" and exploring all of the UK's produce and food items.


Friends in front of the dorms: Erik, yours truly, Emily, and Kevin
