Farewell

"Goodbyes make you think. They make you realize what you've lost, what you have and what you took for granted"- Unknown


Well I leave tomorrow morning at 6am. It's been a long road to this point, and truthfully, all reality has yet to sink in.

Last week my beautiful friend Abbey and her family threw me a going away party. It was hard to think that the entire summer was over. Some of my friends were embarking on their journey to college, while others were preparing for tennis playoffs. All things I could have been doing this year, but yet I decided to find myself. 

I hope that being outside my comfort zone for a year will make me a more global person. Make me appreciate the little things and learn to love myself more and more.

Au revoir for now!!

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” -Mark Twain
