Sweet home Cairo!
Looking at pictures during different stages of my life! One picture in particular was during a school trip to Luxor and Aswan. I can’t for the life of me remember which year, or which grade that trip took place. But all I felt was how I felt at that particular moment, and it was so hot, yet I didn’t feel comfortable in my tank top, so I wrapped my sweater around my arms. It felt so strange to go back in time and relive a moment of insecurity.
Emotions filled up inside of me!
The strangest part of coming home is reflection has made me realize how this experience has changed me. I have suddenly grown to be a woman.
Canada has been amazing year, not because it was a developed country and not because I was on my own. It was amazing cause simply because it was a year of escapism. A year where my world although challenging was just a dream. A big pleasant bubble! Being back has been hard, cause it’s a big dose of reality. All my life experiences have accumulated to what they are now, and all these has shaped who I am and what I want to become!
The perfect quote that feel in my lap on the flight home “The women who ended the race is much different from the one who began it”-Helen Keller

I know exactly how you feel. Been there myself as you know. The good part of it is you come back after "escaping" for a year and you realize who and what really mattered to you. So you end up loving home even more coz you were given a chance to miss the things that really mattered. Now you'll enjoy your family, friends, life in Egypt alot more!
