Going home...

It's a funny feeling to be going 'home' to Australia.

I feel excited, anxious, happy, weird.

I am recalling all that awaits me. The family, my friends, the warmth, the sun, the food, the language... it is like I can feel it again. I can see Macarthur Square where I did so much shopping in my younger days, the Greater Union movie complex, our street, our pool, our kitchen.

It is all home.

But so much has happened in this time that has passed - how can I express it all when I get back?

I mean there was the Danish Chapter - living and working in Copenhagen for 14 months. Travelling Europe: UK, Sweden, Norway, The Netherlands, Belgium, Latvia, Serbia & Montenegro, France, Germany. Working for the AIESEC Denmark Team.

Then there was the Canadian Chapter - living and working in Montreal for 8 months. Travelling to New York, to Washington, to Chicago, to Ottawa. Working in Learning at the University of Concordia.

Then my current Dutch chapter - living and working in Amsterdam for 8 months. Travelling to Switzerland, Copenhagen, France, UK, Belgium. Working in corporate Human Resources.

But what about all the little things?
The friends, the connections, the stories, the places, the memories.

How can I share them all? I want so much too.

Thank god I have my scrapbooks... they will help me tell the story

And I have three weeks...

Of sharing... of conversations.. of catching up with what is happening in the lives of my family and friends.

Three magical weeks!!!!
