I
swam in the sea
had fresh eggs from the farm
walked daily on the beach
picked olives, figs, sweet cherries, jalapenos, and tomatoes
traveled to beautiful islands
met and made friends from all around the world
heard my daughter speak Spanish, English and Croatian all in one sentence
had the opportunity to meet the most wonderful man who brought thousands of smiles to my face
learned how to cook wonderful meals
and
had gelato as part of my daily diet.
I
did all of this
during two of the most memorable, challenging, wonderful, happy years
of living abroad.
Yes,
Our happy to be living in Croatia moments have officially come to an end,
(hubby has safely reunited with us in Iowa).
But now it's time to create new memories and learn more, much more!
These past three months I've cherished the time spent with my family.
We will soon return to Colorado (our previous home state before moving overseas)
I hope to continue blogging
to take you along my travels within the United States
and deciding which language to speak at home.
Many family members live overseas
I do foresee traveling from time to time
Croatia won't be a distant memory
but a daily reminder
to have balance in everything
I do.
