I plan on taking a weekend trip to London, where I hope to visit the British Museum, the Birmingham Palace, and Big Ben. Obviously, I will also be shopping! I particularly enjoy food, so I cannot wait to taste the English cuisine. As the trip approaches, the stress and the excitement that come with traveling solo for the first time are setting in. I keep thinking about my future adventures in England and I also keep overthinking the minutia, like making sure I say \u201cfootball\u201d instead of \u201csoccer\u201d. I\u2019m pretty sure I\u2019m going to be a bit anxious until I settle in at the hostel. In the next few days, I will begin packing and making sure I have everything I need for the trip, all while<em> trying<\/em> to remain calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"guten-element guten-spacer guten-kFg3ox\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>See you soon in Manchester!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"guten-element guten-spacer guten-dP7BhI\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Good-Buckingham-palace-picture-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Good-Buckingham-palace-picture-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Good-Buckingham-palace-picture-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Good-Buckingham-palace-picture-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Good-Buckingham-palace-picture-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bloguelangues.cecm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Good-Buckingham-palace-picture.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Buckingham Palace in London<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The destination I chose for my internship is a youth hostel in Manchester, England.
