These past few months have been nothing short of an adventure that went by way too fast. It sucks to say goodbye, no matter how short the time may be for, it always does. But five months later, with the boarder questioning my ‘visit’ I am heading back. Back to a world where cars drive on the ‘correct’ side of the road, where trains don’t exist, and people speak with an accent similar to my own.
Somewhere, deep down, I am nervous and excited. Sad and happy. Scared, yet curious. Heading home. After five months of being gone…
Good-bye England. Good-bye Europe.
Hello America.
