This is where it ends...

Well I am officially back on the North American continent, arrived home Tuesday evening. The weather here is alot better than in Germany, but that's about it.

It's hard to believe that my summer of travelling and experiences are over, and that real life is about to start again. I don't want to fall back into the mundane swing of things, but it is so hard in a place like this. I met so many cool people this summer on the two continents I travelled that familiar faces are not as sweet as they should be.

A little part of me was ready to come home, but a big part of me isn't. It's hard to please the entirety that is my soul. Wow that was poetic.

I think I am suffering from mild exhaustion, or else something else is up because I feel off... not jet lag off, but weird off. I am going to give it a couple days and see. I have already ran my errands pretty much that I needed to run and did what I needed to do, and now it is time to relax a little (if that is possible).


When I look back on everything that happened this summer and all the experiences, struggles, triumphs and learning I have encountered, it seems surreal. I can't believe half the stuff I did, it seems like someone elses life. I am so happy I did what I did this summer and went where I went, I feel like these experiences have really helped me to come into my own and get a better grasp on my own identity.

I had some real trying moments where my resolve and strength were faltering, but I pushed through. I didn't let anything take me down, and I did what I wanted to when I wanted to for as long as I wanted to. I lived this summer completely my way, with no real responsibilities or promises. That in itself helped me to focus on me.

It is hard to reflect on such a period in a document that is freely accesible to anyone and everyone, so this is where I shall end.

For those of you that read my blog faithfully, thanks for keeping pace with me! I hope I didn't bore you, and hopefully you had a little fun reading this as I definately had fun writing this!

Until my next trip...
