Hello everyone, I’m sorry I haven’t written lately. The weeks leading up to my departure from Prague were hectic, to say the least! The last week of June my brother and sister-in-law arrived, then there was a week of frantic preparation for English Camp, then about 10 days of camp and follow-up trips, then four relaxing but unproductive days in Cesky Krumlov (a gorgeous city in the south of Czech Republic), and then back to Prague just in time for my going-away party on Monday, Ben and Liz leaving on Tuesday, and then 2 ½ days of non-stop boxing, organizing, scanning, meeting, giving-away, selling, throwing-away, sending, and finally two hours before leaving for my flight, packing my bags! I will do my best to post pictures of all these things on Facebook soon.
Leaving Prague was not easy at all, especially since I don’t know when I’ll be back, and I know there are many people I’ll miss. I’ve realized two news things about leaving a country: 1. Moving to another place involves SO much more than packing your things into a suitcase. 2. The only thing that gets me through these departures is having something exciting and new in front of me. I’m very sad to leave Prague, and so excited to jump into the Japanese experience.
To make a long story short, I have now left Prague, had two days in Ireland (check out my travel videos (short, I promise! Only 2-4 minutes!) on www.youtube.com/extravpenguin. And pictures on Facebook.
Now I’m in Boston, which is my favorite American city. I love this place! I’ll also be posting videos and pictures from Boston soon, so stay tuned! While here I’m staying pretty busy taking care of lots of errands and loose-ends, but also trying to relax a bit, enjoy the city, and enjoy the company of several friends who are “coincidentally” in the city at the same time, the Quivey family and Esther Koh.
I can’t think of anything else right now, so I’ll keep this one short. Check out Youtube and Facebook for more details and visuals, and let me know what you’ve all been up to! Take care, and expect another letter soon from Japan! c:
