By this time tomorrow I will be back in the United States! Although, I won’t be back in Texas for several more days. I’m so excited to come home! 

Here are some of things I’m so excited to come back to that I either haven’t had all year or have had very little of. 

  • Free water 
  • Clean water 
  • Hot showers 
  • Good shower water pressure 
  • Free washing machine 
  • Any dryer at all
  • Dish washer 
  • Real coffee
  • A bed I can call my own and know for a fact is clean
  • Buffalo wings 
  • A more than 4 T-shirt wardrobe 
  • AC and heating 
  • A stove I don’t have to light with a match
  • A closet to keep my clothes in instead of a bag
  • Liquid shampoo
  • Driving 
  • Knowing exactly where to go and not have to use my maps.me app
  • A grocery store that I know exactly where everything is and has what I would consider the basics
  • Using American currency and not have to use my converter app
  • Being able to use my debit card nearly everywhere I go
  • Not finding it necessary to carry around a food bag
  • Not having to ask over and over and over again, “what’s the WiFi password?” 
  • Being able to buy the deodorant I like 
  • Good internet
  • Not having to worry about buying a different SIM card each month for my phone 
  • Flushing toilet paper 

Can’t wait to see you guys! Thank you for all the ways you have loved and supported me!!
