Thank you. I miss it every day. The pain hasn’t gotten better – it’s worse. Something to know is I’m terribly sentimental at goodbyes so this one was really tough for me. I promised to be back and I don’t break promises so I look forward to getting back in the next few years.

Hey! Glad your stay in the Philippines was awesome! There are more places there that are breathtaking and I miss visiting them.

Notice that you learned a lot of Tagalog. Will wait for your other posts about your travel.

And though I’m not part of Kiva, if you need help, just send a tweet.

Ah, I miss you all too. I like to think it’s all just the beginning and not the end. I look forward to returning to Talim one day and seeing everyone again. Until then, everyone is in my thoughts.

Thanks Lisa, it’s good to be back. Well, weird and surreal, but good. Why is the adjustment back always harder than the adjustment going? I couldn’t have done it without the support of wonderful people like you, so thanks again for everything! And much more to come soon.

You are a whirlwind of passion, action, and motivation! I am amazed at how much you accomplished in so little time with Kiva, and how you will go on making a difference in the world and in people’s lives!

Welcome back

Laura – Mission accomplished! (On the making you feel like you were there part, not the crying part)!

It’s crazy sometimes because I feel like I write so much, but still so much is lost and not shared with everyone because there are so many moments that make up a day, you know?

I’ll be writing more about the Philippines and my other travel too – just because I’m not there doesn’t mean I don’t have more to say!

Sloane – this post made me cry! (In a good way of course). You made me feel as if I was there – which is what you usually do. This, I know, will be just one more of your wonderful stories to come.
