Can you imagine?

I gave my last presentation today…

Kami will be the first one to leave Gent… already tomorrow…

Lots of farewell meeting plans starting right after the last presentations tomorrow morning…

It’s weird… Really, I cannot help myself thinking about it…

It’s amazing how you connect to different people in such a short period of time. One thing I’m sure about… here things are felt in a more intense way.

...

MoCoMa was a really good surprise.

I could write about my fellows for hours. =) … but I’m already sort of nostalgic to do it… so I will just post some smiles…
“A smile is worth
1000 words”...


No, I cannot imagine how Gent will be without you…

Feelings...

The more we live here the more we realize that we will miss this…

It’s almost over… coming to an end they say… but nobody really wants to face it… and the best way to avoid the nostalgic thoughts in your mind is just living… sharing, hugging and planning as we weren’t leaving… living and leaving…

The more we live the less we want to leave…

Last stop: Portugal... :)

I promised myself that I wouldn’t go to my country until I was going to stay, “I wanna live it as a “whole” I used to say... I said that even if I would go there, I wouldn’t visit Lisbon… and, even if I was forced to go to Lisbon, I wouldn’t go to my place…

Well, not everything in life happens as you wish… and sometimes you really must to give away some things for other things… and this time, it was definitely for a good reason, the best I could have…



So well, I went to Portugal. Finally…


It was weird being surrounded by people who words I could understand… it’s was even weirder to be able to read everything… and besides, I’ve never been so much time away from my beloved ones and I was nervous just to think that I would feel them in my arms…

Apart from that I was just afraid. Almost 9 months passed since I left Lisbon and I was afraid that lot of things had changed. As almost all my predictions - concerning this journey – went wrong, I failed one more time…

“Everything” was just in the place that I left them… and Lisbon is still my Lisbon.

In three days I walked around my favourite places – and tasca :) - I drunk the so famous Portuguese coffee, I saw my family, smashed some of my little precious – my cousins – I hugged my friends… and I stared at m.a… I even had time to discover a new sightseeing point in the old part of the city and to dance in a typical popular party while eating farturas… :P

In the end, I came back happier… just because India lima oscar victor echo yankee oscar uniform alpha november delta India delta oscar november oscar tango charlie alpha romeo echo india foxtrot oscar uniform romeo charlie oscar delta echo india sierra sierra oscar sierra india mike papa lima echo tango hotel alpha tango echo victor echo romeo yankee bravo oscar delta yankee uniform november delta echo romeo sierra tango alpha november delta sierra India tango… :)
