This will be temporary I believe though. My ticket is a return ticket with a flight back to Helsinki scheduled for the 15th of September. I just don't feel like I'm done in Europe and since it's cheaper to book a return flight than a one way I thought I would leave my options open. Looking for English teaching jobs now. Most likely in France because I'm really set on becoming fluent in the language. Other options are on the table though. I'm just so excited to learn and grow and experience new things. I'm in love with newness these days. And don't feel it's time to give that up.
But I'm also excited to see all the people I love from home. Home definatly has new meaning now and more worth. I look forward to familiarity as well. For awhile at least. Have several weddings to see this summer now, not just the one I'll be a bridesmaid in but another as well that I just found out about. So new things waiting for me at home as well that I look forward to. Changes all around.
Will expand on this later but just to catch up, after Krakow I travelled to Prague in the Czech Republic for 4 days, meeting up with Camille and Cory again before taking a bus to Berlin where I stayed for 5 days. I LOVE BERLIN!! It felt a lot like Seattle with the youth culture but with a mind blowing history and lasting revolutionary spirit to boot. Had such a wonderful time there staying with my friend Marie that I met in Paris. Then April 28th I took a bus to Rostock, Germany where I got on a ferry to Helsinki, Finland. Am here now visiting my friend James from NCA and having a great time. It's odd to me that this will be my last destination, but a relief a bit as well. It's always odd to wrap things up but I will be here for two weeks so have a bit of time to spend still. Plan to make the most of it.
See you soon America(ns)!
