Home at Last

I'm home now, after 11 months abroad, I'm back home. How weird. Yes, definitely a lot of culture shock, but it was okay and im slowly getting back into the swing of things, like how at 10pm on a sunday, you can still go to the store to get a candy bar. haha. yes its true. those things are so different.

i miss belgium already, but i know that ill go back to visit time and time again, so its okay. i miss the french, and being with my belgians. they were wonderful. je vous aime, mes belges !

all in all, it was the greatest experience of my life. any other experience is going to have a tough time beating this one. sure there were many difficult times i encountered, but the good times, far outweighed the bad, and i would do it all again in a heartbeat. i feel like i live two lives. or like i lived two lives. haha. my belgian one, and my american one. i hope i keep some things from my belgian life, and incorporate them into my american life, because i love them both. i want to keep them both a part of me. i miss belgium but i love america and im so glad to be home!

<3 this is it!
