I remember last year, around this time, I was getting ready to leave for Turkey. Now I’m getting ready to leave again for Romania.
I can say that the past year flew by so fast that I didn’t even realize it. As I’m writing my last thoughts for the GSM blog, there is a little bit of sadness that comes over me. One year is the perfect time to make roots in one place, and this is what I did. I made good friends and I met people who taught me things. I learned and discovered lots of things and also learned to appreciate the people around me.
For me, this adventure was a time of reflection on my life and how I saw it, and I can say that I am leaving here with a new perspective and am happy and curious about my new adventures. In fact, one year is never enough to feel what I am feeling now as I leave the place I have been calling home for one year now.
I’m sad as I’m leaving, but I’m excited for the future. Someone said that the way I live is interesting. I don’t make plans for a short time, I just let life take me somewhere, but if you ask me about my future, I have plans and I have goals. I don’t plan for tomorrow, I plan for next month. interesting, right?
This volunteering experience was an amazing opportunity for me, and I will recommend it to everyone who asks me.
I’m going to miss my friends that I made during this process, who always shared my half of brain cells, and we end up doing crazy things together, and at the end, we ask ourselves: how do we always end up doing this?
