Bienvenue!

A note to the Reader:
Hello and welcome to my new blog!

This will be my first real experiment in public blogging. I have been an avid journaler for many years now, but I've never really attempted to do this practice in the public eye. The purpose of this blog is mainly to function as a means of communication for anyone interested in the happenings of my life as I travel around, specifically as I make my anticipated move to France in the coming weeks. While I'm sure it will be informative about specific events, it would be silly to assume that random tangents about my thoughts, opinions, and feelings will not sneak rather conspicuously into the fabric of my posts. So, as a writer telling my life story, I'll write what I want, and you as the reader have the liberty to skip any piece that bores or displeases you. :) I won't be offended. I am, however, excited about sharing my life with you and will keep you in mind as I write, hopefully making things as readable and entertaining as possible.

For my non spanish speaking followers, I'll briefly explain the title of this blog. "Caminante" means most literally "walker." Wanderer, goer, traveler or any other movement word you can think of are part of the connotation of the word. It is a word that I like and it seemed appropriate to me. Wait a minute. Spanish? Aren't you going to France? Well yes, yes I am. But as a Spanish major with a French minor, I say any language is free game. :)

All for now. More to come on preparing for France, soon.
