This past year, has been a journey of learning about myself. I thought it was gonna be easy to come back home. However, it has been not as easy as I thought. I have found out that I am not just a Guatemalan anymore, but in my heart there are little pieces of the whole world. I had the blessing to meet people from all over the world and make some lifetime friendships with them. During the time I shared with them, I learned part of their way of living faith, their humor, their taste and their way of showing affection. Therefore, when I came back, my behavior was not fully Guatemalan, it had so much more to it. Some things that maybe for other people are hard to understand, and sometimes, I wish I could explain.
For now, I am enjoying this phase of life. I am trying to enjoy adjusting back as the new person I have become. I have realized that I do not need to fit in, but I just need to be myself.
