One more time
Door: Carine
14 Augustus 2008 | Australië, Melbourne
Several people have asked me lately what my highlight of my exchange was this time. I know I’m likely to get asked that question several times in the next few weeks as well. Truth is, I don’t know. The things that made this exchange special are lots of things. Little things. Random things. Things that are hard to put into words or pinpoint exactly. It’s realising as I land back in Melbourne after three weeks of New Zealand that I really missed the place and the people it holds for me. It’s realising at the very same time that I’m not landing in Adelaide and that on some level I had been expecting to see everyone I left behind there again too after my 3 weeks away. That I miss them more than I thought I did while I was still keeping myself busy with travelling through NZ. It’s the random times I spent with people I love or have come to love along the way, not necessarily doing anything special at all. It’s sometimes being able to trick myself into thinking – just for a little while – that I can make this last and that I don’t really have to say goodbye all over again. Packing gets easier every time, leaving never does. But I’ll be back sooner or later.
Love Carine
xoxo

I think its the challenges you take/pass-up/fail/struggle through and the learnings you get from every experience. Those are the things that define each step you take, every decsison you make, every new friend and together they give you the experience that cannot be summed up in one word, one moment in time or one thought. its the whole package! xox -
