I celebrate with friends. I prepare special treats.
We laugh, we sing, we dance, we eat.
I walk in the city. I meet up with friends.
Our time here as expats, sadly must end.
Gentle reminders: Have FUN everyday!! Make the most of every connection and interaction you have. The days are long, but the years are short. Make the most of everything.
I wish all my repatriating friends “a hui hou” (until we meet again) and safe and happy travels. This time of year, I say that a lot. If I hadn’t chosen this expat life, I would not have had the great fortunate to meet them. I’m grateful and blessed and heart-broken all at the same time.
Aloha,
Denise
