Back in Sweden

On Friday mornign we arrived back in sweden after 9.5 weeks in Africa. We were imersed in a completley different culture while there and everythign was different. Language, food, people, weather, transportation...etc. It was such a good experience and I'll post some more outreach stories if I have time later.

All in all being back is a bizare feeling. There are so many people you want to reconnect with and here stories of other peoples outreach while at the same time you still want to spend time with your team because you know the time here will soon be up and your relationship will be long distance and not nearly the same. Its weird not to be with your team 24/7 and to be spending time with different people. I miss team meetings and meal times and just relaxing together or our little routines that you didnt' really realize were routines while you were on outreach but now that thigns are different i miss the small things. All in all though it is good to be back. I"m excited for life and i'm excited for more exciting adventures that will take place this next month. The past few days i have finished planning my short trip after my DTS before flying home out of Amsterdam... This is what it looks like...
