So here, I am, writing another post about packing- didn't I just write one of these?!?!
Going back to Canada tomorrow morning after what is sure to be an amazing send off tonight. I can't believe how fast the time has gone, although I guess it always seems that way in retrospect. The first month I got here I was busy, but homesick and stuck in culture shock. Now it seems so strange that I'll be going back to Canada for a while. I suppose this whole year is just one large transition with highs and lows.
I learned a lot and I had a great time though. I met people from all over the world, and saw a lot of it too.
I've also gained a greater appreciation for Canada now that I have lived somewhere else. It takes the cake.
And now it's time to travel back in time instead of forward. I arrive in Toronto at 7:40pm, Sunday, Nov. 13th. BUT I leave Australia at 11:20am, Sunday Nov. 13th. I assure you, it's not an 8 hour plane ride. 14 hours and 20 minutes to LA, and then a 6 hour layover where I will probably eat and read my way through time. Then finally, a short 4 and a half hour plane ride from LA to Toronto. And there you have it!
I'm not sure if I'll continue blogging too much being at home- not that I think Canada is any less exciting. But we'll see what kind of thoughts I have to throw at you.
Thanks to everyone who read along with me for this journey :)
G'day Mate!
Totally understand your greater appreciation for Canada now too! Living in Korea (even though I've only been here 3 and a half weeks) has made me greatly appreciate Canada even more than ever before. Have a great time at home!!!!!! :)
