Exactly one year a go I was getting ready
for this amazing experience. Packing, weighting the suitcase, doing last minute
shopping, saying goodbye…but no one told me what was going to happen, anyone
knew. I wasn’t expecting that 2013 would be the best year of my life.
Now I can appreciate how this adventure has
changed me and how I have been growing as a person. It was hard to say goodbye
to friends and family, and even with Internet I still miss the small
things…Having coffee, endless conversations and drinks with friends. My dad
preparing my lunch every day, with my piece of chocolate included!
After a year I am not longer a student, I
have grown up and I’m still doing it. I learned to live on my own, in a new
country, with a different language and culture. Sometimes I am surprise about
my language skills (I know I have still a lot to learn), I never thought I
could have a whole life in English.
This year changed my in a deeper way. After
a long time I finally let myself feel again and it feels great, even when I get
hurt.
However, the most important part of this
experience is the people I have met. Amazing, interesting and so great people
that I will never forget and that have inspired me in so different ways. With
out them this year would have been completely different.
My new life started a year a go with its 4
questionable seasons, 12 months, 365 day and I am so glad I embarked on this journey!
