What do I feel? What do I want? I’m not sure 8). My mood can really change very often I may feel down but in 2 minutes feel like I can do many things and that great future is waiting for me. I want not very much but quite enough things and at the same time, that’s what bring me sometimes disappointments or sadness, but – never mind – crying is easy and sometimes relaxing – but not all the time, moving and moving all the time…

Many people ask me how is Ghana, how is everything, what I feel, what has changed. I know for sure – that something changed, but didn’t think very much about it. I know for sure that I learnt something, if to think more – will find out it. But what I’m afraid of is that I will forget everything in a year or more after coming back to home. For example – when you are foreigner you have some challenges that are understood very much by other foreigners, but when you are back to home for some time – you stop having such challenges and becoming much less sensitive to foreigners’ problems/challenges.

After living with several foreigners, especially boys in the house I understood for sure – that it’s nice experience – but it’s enough and I always want to live in my own flat/house and can bear some other people (especially not friends) only for several days and better – not in my house. I also understood how much I like to decorate my own place/flat/house, how much I like to make any place my warm/comfortable home.

8) Sveta, yes, my parents were a little bit scared but I gave them all info about country and everything what foreign AIESECers in Ghana were telling about it. And, ofcourse, you should be sure in stability of that country as well, or, at least, look sure. My friend did in another way - her parents came to visit her and felt better after it (I asked her mother). 8)
P.S. Miss you girls!!! Both of you are crazy and loud!
