I am just under three months away from something completely different and my European adventure is coming to a close for now. When I think about what is coming, I am so excited and ready to jump in with both feet. Well mostly. Starting over is always a bit difficult. I may not have very many friends and I may not have too much of a social life, but I have my community and my routine here. I am not nervous about going to a new place, but I am nervous about starting over. A new house, new furniture, new clothing, new people, new job, new language, new culture, new food...I'm nervous, but so excited. The thing that really makes me sad is leaving what has become home. When I first got here I never thought this place would truly become my home, but it has. I am used to not seeing the sun for weeks and not ever wearing shorts. I have even come to appreciate my pasty whiteness and I feel like a mole when the sun comes out.
