Stephanie :
From the moment you introduced yourself I knew we would get along. You have been such a great friend to me through this experience and I can't thank you enough. We have shared so much together and gotten so close I couldn't have made it through Alicante without you! Even introduced me to Nutella! Your creative and free spirit inspires me so much and I know we will be friends forever. You're truly a unique and beautiful soul..... ππ
Sadie:
Oooooo Sadie what can I possibly say about you. You have the biggest heart in the world and you're a sweetheart. Since day one when you walked in after your traumatic airport experience in tears laughing at yourself I've loved you since. You've showed me to find the good in all people and that as much as you may dislike someone to find what makes them sparkle β.From hearing about your sad Sadie stories, vining, kevin, daily CNN updates and watching every parade possible out of your window these memories will stay with me always. As crazy as you are, you're an amazing, smart and beautiful person inside and out. I've never met anyone like you and probably never will. ILYYYYYYYY β€β€β€β€ππ
The train door closed and the three of us crying like babies is when it really hit me that i would be returning home. It was like a movie scene. You both have been so influential in my life. God brings people in to your life for a reason and I truly believe we were meant to meet. I never thought after 6 weeks I would get as close as I have with you two but I am blessed to have met you both. I love you girls with all my heart and i know we will meet again someday.
My experience abroad has truly been life changing. I have learned so much about myself , others and an entire new culture. As I board my plane all of my memories are flashing through my mind and I wouldn't have changed my experience one bit. I never expected traveling to change my life this way but it really has. I view life in a completely different perspective and have had the experience of a lifetime. I had some of the best professors I've ever had, amazing new friends, and seen some of the most beautiful places in the world.
