Homeward Bound

It's Wednesday, May 26th, and I'm going home! I'm waiting in the Amsterdam airport for my flight and its exciting to think that I'm potentially surrounded by other Vancouverites. I can't wait to fly over the Georia Strait and the coast mountains and see my family waiting at the gate.

As some of you may know, yesterday I was back in Paris with my friends and their baby. It was also my 25th birthday, so we toasted champagne and went salsa dancing. I hadn't wanted to make a big deal about it, but Matias an Alessandra are lovely and wouldn't hear of anything less. It was my first time salsa dancing in four and a half months!

It doesn't quite feel real that I'm going home, but then, it didn't quite feel real when I left for West Africa either. To all of you who read this blog, thank you so much. Writing it was one of my greatest pleasures on this trip, and it would have been pointless without you.
