Afterthoughts

I have been back home a week now, and  already some of my memories of Zambia are starting to cloud over as my old life creeps up on me. Of course everyone asks "What was it like?" and I feel like I need some time for my thoughts and feelings to settle before I can really answer them properly. There were some times that were quite hard on a personal level - and it is great to be back with my friends and family who know me and love me. At the same time, I never want to forget all the people I met whose warmth and friendship touched me and whose stories humbled me, and I hope that I will be able to continue my connection with them in some way.
