don't make me leave this amazing place! :( looks like I will have to marry prince William!
Writing this blog post having been home for 4 days is so
bittersweet. It is so nice to be home
and be reunited with my family, friends, and boyfriend. Of course there were other things I missed
about the United States, like not having to use a converter or one of my
personal happy places, Taco Bell. But
even reflecting on the trip is hard because I am already London-sick. I had the absolute time of my life and would
not trade my experience for anything in the world. The places and the people will be a part of
me forever. London really did change me
in ways, and I like to think they are good things. I have not been sleeping in the way I used
to, like a hibernating bear. I have been
waking up early every day and really trying to make the most out of the time
that I have in a day. I am not sure
whether or not this habit will continue, but so far I am trying! I have learned to step out of my comfort
zone, to appreciate more of the little things in life, and to REALLY appreciate
the big things. By that, I really mean
my parents. They have pulled so many
different strings for me to come on this trip, financially and timing
wise. We have always had a very good
relationship but this trip really helped me to put into perspective just how
generous they are to me. I would be literally
nowhere without any of their support.
Last but
definitely not least, my trip really taught me a lot about myself and one of
those things is how much more of the world that I want to see. I seriously loved getting to go to so many
different countries in Europe, and I would love to see so many more
places. Next on my list are Ireland,
Italy, and Greece. I honestly feel like I
am addicted to traveling, and before I settle down and have a family, it is
something that I want to do a lot more of.
It gives me such a rush and I know that London was only the beginning of
all my travel adventures!
