Leaving customs after what seemed like a year spent in Logan airport, I was greeted by a treasure: a bag of Swedish fish and M&M’s. Best first meal back ever.
I’m so sad to end this trip, but I know that I have had a great experience during my time in Kosovo. I’d like to throw in the cliche saying that study abroad is the best experience you will have during college. Cliche, but still true.
I’ll miss the people and the friendly culture that was always welcoming to us. Wherever I went, the people worked hard to make us feel right at home.
It’s strange because I spent so much time preparing for the trip and researching the country that I can’t believe it is already over. 5 weeks was not enough and it still hasn’t sunk in that I’m home and it’s over.
I really hope that I will be able to do this work again in a foreign country. And I hop to continue to learn about different cultures through the best method possible: experiencing it firsthand.
