I now sit at the airport in Stockholm with my family, awaiting our flight to Iceland which will be followed by our flight to Toronto. August 31 - I can't believe this day has finally come, the day I've sometimes dreaded and the day I've sometimes looked forward to. This past week has been hectic with running last minute errands, souvenir shopping, and long awaited quality time with my family. It's been great to see Stockholm one last time with them before heading back home. I'll miss my easy-going lifestyle here, only attending one class at a time, once a week; getting to travel to other European cities for cheap; and spending quality time with myself, able to reflect on anything and everything while walking along side the most beautiful scenery - something I can rarely do in Toronto. However, it is clear from my past blog entries that these past months weren't always filled with great experiences. There were definitely hardships, disappointments and other hills to overcome, but it was all part of an experience I'll never forget, and I'll miss it all the same. 8 months of traveling, discovering, learning, relaxing, and having fun. Back to that busy lifestyle I once knew! But Europe hasn't seen the last of me.
Ps. 8 months it's been, happy with that secret.
