I realise it's been a while since I used this blog....it's strange...after returning from my Year Abroad in France and Spain, I was determined to carry on writing. Yet coveting certain songs/clothes/newspaper articles just didn't seem right. Plenty of other blogs for that, right?
The entries stopped because I got busy, yes, but they also stopped because I told myself I didn't want to write about the U.K, assuming entries would not live up to the spontaneity of trips to Brussels and 2 week getaways to Eastern Europe. Granted, due to study commitments, since September trips have not been quite as spontaneous or frequent as they were before.
Yet the trips haven't stopped! After a couple of months staying in one place, thumbs were twiddling once again and I began to realise that travel really is what you make of it (clichéeeee!). I want to 'profiter bien' from home and all it has to offer for wannabe jet setters like myself, while my feet are firmly grounded, at least for the next 7 months or so...
Yes, I confess to occasionally reading through previous blog entries, remembering just how happy and carefree I was this time last year as I started the final chapter of the French adventure. I don't bemoan the fact that I am no longer living the 'European' dream. It had to end sometime, and perhaps knowing my adventures had an expiry date always made them all the more exciting.
Having absolutely no idea what the latter stages of 2012 have in store is exciting. And that makes me realise the greatest adventure is yet to come...
Home sweet home...
