Hello to everyone!Armed with only our backpacks, my sister Morgan and I are finally ready to embark on our European adventure. Take-off is tomorrow at 12:40 p.m. to meet our mother and brother in Morocco for one week before heading to Germany to start a three week backpacking tour across Eastern Europe. We're kicking this off by flying out of Marrakech to Berlin on the 23rd, then trekking over to the Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Ukraine and a final stop in Amsterdam. While our plans are only tentative, we are certain this trip will allow us to see parts of the world in a unique and powerful manner while at the same time to bring us together as siblings, who are very different from each other, and to learn not only about ourselves but about our family's cultural and religious history stemming from eastern Europe.
Stay tuned because we will keep posting over the next month with photos, stories, and new insights as we explore our own backgrounds and the traditions of other communities -- that is as long as Morgan doesn't kill me before the trip is over.
