The World Before Me

Finished. I’m done. Done done done. I did it. Oh man oh man. So many times I thought of packing my bags and going home to my parents where the food is better and the house isn’t freezing or humid and where the TV people speak in English but I stuck it out. I Finished. My job as an English teacher is officially over (for now) and I’m onto a new chapter. Wow I am so excited and scared and happy and nervous but good nervous. Thank you so much for sharing this journey with me. For being there when I needed you. Over and over again. You know who you are. Please continue to walk with me for my next adventure. I’ll be waiting. I won’t embark without you.
