This exchange has been the best experience I could have hoped for. When I arrived in London in September I commenced two weeks of travel through Europe which was truly incredible. As I have had time to reflect on my travels I have come to understand that it’s not so much about one specific experience but rather, the abundance of little memories that surround it. Continue reading Abundance of Little Memories
I cannot believe how quickly my exchange has come to an end. In just 2 days, I will be on my way back to Aotearoa and I must admit, I’m surprised by how hard it has been to say goodbye. Continue reading Cheers to goodbye
I can hardly believe I’m in my final days at Lancaster University here in England. After years of planning and anticipating this time, it is nearly over, and it has gone so quickly! It is a week of ‘lasts.’ Last Criminology class, last time I’m going grocery shopping on the university’s free bus, last time I visit town, last time I go to the incredible library here, last time I do laundry, etc. I know I will feel a mixture of sadness, but also satisfaction when I get on the train out of here at the end of the week.

A few months ago, I imagined I would be soaking up on the beaches of Santa Barbara, overall just enjoying the classic American experience. But as life often goes, things didn’t go to plan. But as the weeks fly by, it is becoming clearer that the journey isn’t about getting what I expected, but rather about what I can make out of it. Continue reading The Journey, it’s what you’re going to make of it.
