I can’t describe these feelings.. Now that it’s time to say goodbye, I dont want to go.. I’m just getting accustomed to the culture.. And I’ve come a long ways with my language. Just as I’m getting comfortable in this environment.. its over .. in the blink of an eye. I’m gonna miss the the people, the place, and more importantly the family that made this adventure so great .. It wouldn’t have been the same with anyone else.. I got very lucky to have such a caring and loving family.. To nurture me, be patient with my learning, take me places, and all the little things in between.

Today.. my last day in France.. I wouldn’t have spent it any other way… Shopping during the final period of the French holiday SOLDES… In France there are only 2 times a year stores are allowed to put their items on sale…and it happened to be while I was here.. for 3 weeks prices are marked down on clothes…and each week it goes down more and more. What a perfect way to spend the last of my Euros.. they won’t do me any good in the States 😉

And finally I had my last meal … What a bittersweet event…

And tomorrow starts my 16 hours of travel back home to the United States……………..

Au Revoir, À Bientôt
