Going home.
Overall I am excited to go home and see people again and to be home, but I am very sad leaving my students. Teaching here in South Africa has been an amazing life changing experience. It's also been an eye opening adventure in terms of education. As an American, I see education from one perspective, but now having taught in a school that does not have an American perspective, I am able to see things in a different light. I don't want to get off on a philosophical rant, but it really has been interesting. If you'd like to know more about the philosophical side of things, call me in a few days and we can have coffee and talk!
I'll leave you with what my students wanted to leave me with:
bittersweet indeed... those changes in life are always hard, but I do hope you embrace and love the next big adventure! stay blessed:)
