Hello peeps!
It has been almost a week I am back to the UK and it seems I brought the sun with me :)
Despite worrying about the return and all I would need to sort out - place to sleep, car, job hunt, bank... - I am well chuffed being back. And none of my end-of-the-world-as-I-know-it scenarios have actually hapened - so far so good!
I cannot start to say how wonderful this past year and a half has been for me. The people I met, the things I have experienced have all combined to make me a somehow different Angela than the one who left.
Thank you for this amazing opportunity, new friends and old friends, each and every one of you who stood by me when I needed my homies, helped me when I was lost, kicked me in the ass when I was making a fool of myself, or just made me a nice cup of tea when I needed a chat.
It has been hot, cold, misty, dry, wet, sandy, tough, hilarious, puzzling, gob smacking, frustrating, chilled out, scary, sometimes naked, always open minded, on sofas, bunk beds, in tents, hammocks, rarely lying down in the sand, flavoursome, never too spicy, weird and squishy, deep and thoughtful, downright silly, always in flip-flops and much much more than there would be space here to list.
It was all worth it though, despite the heartbreaks, frustration and uncertainty I faced during the 6 months running up to D-day.
I don't know yet if this is 'back for good' or just another stop on the journey. I feel at home here though, I belong and it feels good. But I want to give myself some time to digest the whole thing before taking any long term decision as to if/where I will go next.
Until then my lovelies, I am around and happy to be back, so let's go outside and enjoy a bit of sunshine :)
Love and hippie vibes,
Angela
