So I just thought I would take a moment to reflect upon the fact that I have been living outside of the States for a year and a half now...and it is finally starting to really hit me! I never really realized how living outside of the States for that amount of time can really change your view point on things.
Tomorrow I start my 36 hour trip, give or take, back to the States to visit for three weeks. I take an over night 12 hour bus up to Quito where my flight to Miami leaves from. Then after a 7 hour layover I fly out from Miami to Nashville arriving around 11pm and getting to my parents house at about midnight. It is really crazy to think that my visit back to the States is finally here!
It is also very strange how weird it seems to be leaving Ecuador, even knowing that I will be coming back. With that said, I can only imagine how it will feel when I leave for good to return to the States. It really is amazing how much we adapt to what is around us and how comfortable we become with what we have now matter if it is really what we want or not. That wonderful word of "change". No matter if it is a good change or a bad change, it most often proves hard to do.
