Sometimes we have to leave places and people we love. Sometimes our visas (and funds...) run out. And sometimes, for a brief moment, we recognize how incredibly fortunate we are for having had so many bright and wonderful experiences packed into one short and powerful year. I won't ooze on here (cheese, you know), but I did want to acknowledge how happy this year has been on the whole, as opposed to simply the sadness of leaving.
And now that that's done, I can fill you in on all the adventures of my last month abroad!* I'll have a last few things to say about London, along with a few postcards from Italy - Rome, Florence, Siena and the Tuscan countryside. I've been back home in PA for a little over a week now, have finally figured out why the money feels too light and everyone's accent sounds like mine, and will start (part-time) work soon. So that's where I'm at in this wonderful transition phase called life. I hope you're savoring your own, along with the remaining days of the summer.
Love,
Annie
