Leavin' On a Jet Plane

Tomorrow I am taking off for the West, albeit not very far West. Just to London. I am meeting my parents in London and spending some time there and also in Paris. Should be a nice trip and I am looking forward to finding some things that can't be found here, mostly different kinds of food.

I have only left Albania for 10 days over the last year, and that was to travel in Eastern Europe, so it will be nice to spend a little time in some big cities out West.

I am hoping that this trip will also help me come back with a fresh perspective on Albania and my final year here. Living here, I feel like I continue to lose perspective of where I really am and the history of this place. Daily life kind of just numbs me a bit. I am reading a book on Albania right now and it is really making me re-reflect on this place. I guess I will write more about that when I get back and have my fresh perspective :)

Sheern out.
