HOME TO HOME PART 1.

I’ve been living abroad for 8 months now. This was the best decision I’ve ever made. I felt that, if I turned down this opportunity, it would’ve never came again, plus, I was ready to go forward with my life. I’ve been doing very well, finally blossoming. I also love my new environment and quickly adjusted to the cultural differences. 
The only conflict about living overseas is, being away from family. I have a wonderful family, that loves me unconditionally, and I’m forever grateful for them. For me, it’s important that I love and embrace them now, while we still have each other, but sometimes it seems impossible because of the distance. I was finally able to go home for a couple of weeks, I needed to physically be in their company, and take a break. 
I flew from Taipei to Tokyo to New York, then drove to Jersey. I felt relieved being home because I know I was missed, and they worry about me being far. I didn’t do anything productive except go out with friends and family, and I was jet lagged the entire time I was there. But, when I arrived back in Taiwan, I wasn’t jet lagged at all. CRAZY! 
I was unable to see my ENTIRE family, but that’s one pro for technology. I’m glad I went home, but I’m also glad that I made this big move….
