Readjusment

Tonight as l sit here thinking about living in two countries l am realizing it takes just a bit of adjusting when you are in one or the other.  Where does one begin?  Maybe it is with the food,  or the money, or  the language,  or the  clothes which brings me to the weather.  l seem to be very attached to warmer weather.  l feel healthier, lighter, maybe even a bit happier.

The other adjustment is leaving friends and  renewing relationships  with the friends in either country you left  a half year or more.  Everybody changes, ages, and either country you are in, life goes on whether you are there or not.

The bottom line is at this particular time l would not miss the adventure of living in either country.  Way to many adventures and readjusting  in either country is just one small bump in the life of a gypsy.

  1. Mario's mom here. It sounds like you are happy living in two countries - being happy is the most important thing. But you are right, it must be a big adjustment after 6 nonths to return to the other country. A lot has happened in the 6 months you were gone.
