Wow, what a summer it's been. I've been living out of suitcases for the past 11 weeks. The past six days or so have been insane--that itinerary I posted before it working out beautifully. I am now posting from my grandfather's house in Chevy Chase, Maryland, USA, just outside of Washington, DC.
I had an amazing time returning to Israel for a day and also visiting Tufts and Boston for two days. Friends are awesome. Now I'm enjoying time with family in Washington before I will return at long last to California (and figure out how to get a working computer!).
I had a wonderful conversation this evening with a 98 year old woman. She speaks English, Russian, and Spanish, and she's more active and spry than more 70 year olds I've seen. I hope I'll have even some of that kind of longevity!
So much to say, but this will only be a short update. What a summer this has been!
I will say, quickly, that I have been learning so much. I've had so many amazing experiences, and I've gained so much perspective on things--life, the world, me, everything. I really feel that I have been growing up a lot, and I feel less anxious and stressed. I've also made a ton of new friends. Anyhow, it's all a great experience!
