This is it, my last night in Madrid, in Spain, in Europe, before I get back to a more normal life, with concerns other than making a reservation for the next hotel and deciding what to see today. It's back to working, to resting, to eating home-cooked meals and sleeping in my own bed and my own room. Alone. And it's back to having tons of clothes to choose from, clean ones too, and to know where to find food, shops, anything I want! It's also back to not knowing what to do with my time, to spending that time with friends, to playing the piano.
Not too bad I guess. But I'll miss the constant moving around, the uncertainty of the day to come, seeing new and exciting things every day, meeting new people (though I'll admit we did less of that than we could have, we're private and introverted people, us) and just traveling without the stress of daily life.
Alors oui, je reviens, pleine de sentiments contradictoires. Un moment j'ai tres hate d'etre de retour parmi mes choses, ma famille et mes amis, le suivant je suis toute triste et apprehensive de quitter ce mode de vie auquel je me suis habituee durant ces derniers six mois. D'ailleurs, ce soir, on veut manger un bon dernier souper typique (paella) mais j'ai l'estomac tout noue.
Mais il n'est plus temps de reculer et demain apres-midi, nous prendrons l'avion pour Philadelphie, puis pour Ottawa, ou nous arriverons a 19h15, pour ceux que ca interesse. J'ai bien hate de vous voir, il faudra qu'on fasse plein de belles choses ensemble, pour me reacclimater a Ottawa.
Stay tuned, I'll probably write a final entry once I get back, plus there might be some pictures added in days to come.
