Although I have traveled and been on semi long vacations, I have never traveled, alone, to a foreign country for so long. I have grown so much and most importantly gained the strengh and confidence to venture to India if the opportunity presents itself. I genuinely believe that I have pushed my confidence further then ever before. Away from my comfort zone and my support system, I've had the opportunity to be the Nadege that I say and believe I am. I see the values/morals that will be with me wherever I go and have also taken note of the ones that I need to work on.
It is very easy to forget how fortunate you are. I'm thankful for this time and experience. It has brought to light the things I need to appreciate in my life.
Observing the people of Jamkhed has shown me what selflessness and true happiness are. Despite a troubled life of many obstacles and set backs the people have had, they continue to live with such joy and determination.
I truly believe that I am exactly where I am suppose to be. I know much more about cultural and social barriers. I feel much more prepared, mentally, for my career path. I am prepared to welcome whatever challenges, changes and opportunities that come my way. This has been an enriching experience thus far.
