3 Days and Counting...

In three days I will be boarding an Aerosur flight to Santa Cruz, Bolivia for a night before a very early morning flight on Thursday that will take me to Miami, and finally to San Francisco! I really cannot express in words all the emotions and thoughts, feelings and excitement, nostalgia and uncertainty that are circulating and lingering in my mind.

Last night, after spending a few hours with the girls--we had a Christmas Tea Party and played a few card games--I had to prepare myself to say goodbye. It was so hard! I know I will be visiting the homes a few times this week, but saying goodbye will be so difficult. I feel like I got to know a lot of the girls much better during a adventure to Potosi and Sucre! So, leaving at this moment does not seem plausible or possible. Part of me is dying to be home, and the other part is not ready to say goodbye or see you later!

This week will be filled with goodbyes and despedidas (a goodbye party)! I don't know if I am ready, but whether I am or not, it will happen!

To all those at home, I really cannot wait to see you! And, for all those in Cochabamba, I am not ready to say bye! But, life moves on!

I am off to a Chrstmas dinner/Despedida at Tyson and Carolina's house!
