the world's got me dizzy again

And so, my friends, my European adventure has drawn to a close. The last week has been so hectic, I haven't even had a chance to write anything. Suffice it to say that I am ready to go home, both in the literal sense -- bags are packed and waiting outside my bedroom door -- and in the spiritual sense. Yesterday, on the train back to Lyon from Milan, I nearly burst into tears when writing goodbye letters to my host family. I don't think I fully realize yet how much this year abroad has changed me or will affect my future, but I know that a certain chapter in my life has now ended. What is beyond is uncertain and fully of possibility, and I am both terrified and excited at the prospect.
