ACHOO! Sorry, I’m homesick

I miss my mom. That’s my personal struggle when it comes to being somewhere new. The first couple of days on the trip were interesting, especially for my stomach. My body was not ready for the food I was about to feed it and boy did I got sick. Being in that state made me want to seek that comfort that only my mom could bring me. Luckily I didn’t have to look far, as I had the best roommate ever. Sanu was ready to step in without anyone even having to ask her. She was there to tend to my every need. She really did turn into my mom for a day. I remember getting woken up to eat dinner at around 10 at night. I wasn’t even hungry and yet I had someone making sure I ate. Being force fed by moms seems to be my hobby. This is just an example on how people on this trip are truly amazing. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to travel somewhere new and have them by my side experiencing the same things I am. Getting to know them, who they are, and their points of view based on that is something that wouldn’t happen easily anywhere else. The space that we’ve been brought into and help cultivate has made it possible. The connections we made were so smooth though that I’m not lying when I say that if anyone on this trip ever need a favor years from now they could totally hit me up. I miss my mom, but I’ll miss these guys too.
