Am in my final hours in Asia and it's really starting to hit me now! My trip is over! I feel really really sad that I have to confront all the realities of home in Canada but really happy to see family again. But this past year has given me more motivation to travel more, be more active and to work overseas again (but maybe not in the near future). I can't even describe how wonderful the experiences I've had were and I'm sure all of you will be so sick of hearing about it after a while!! But I encourage all of you to take some time and do it, it'll really change your perspective about so many things... I may sound a bit New Age guruish now but oh well! Anyways, goodbye Asia! It's been a good year! Hello Canada!!
