Today as i rode the car rapide home i realized that i felt so relieved to be back 'home' to a place that was familiar. it made me happy but then i realized that i'll be leaving forever pretty soon... which made me really sad. it made me realize how much of myself i'm putting into this experience and how much it'll change me. it's gonna be hard to go home, go back to the same old thing as if this whole experience was just a trip instead of four months of my life, some of the most life-changing moments of my life. it's gonna be hard to talk to people and sum up this experience in a few words or sentences. cuz it can't be summed up. this is my life.

touching post.
i think, that though you may leave the place physically, it will always be with you when you feel it in your heart.
Hi Licia,
I'm Mairead's mom, and I just saw your blog linked to Mairead's for the first time! I love reading all your descriptions of your Senegal adventures and getting one more version of some of the stories Mairead also tells! It's great to hear about the wonderful friendships you are all forming--and the life-altering experiences you're having! Looking forward to meeting you in a little over a week! Hope you're up for a free lunch!
