Despite all the criticism I have given this country and this area, there is still something slightly magical about being back for the first time in so long. And even though I may not really belong here anymore there are some things that I wouldn't trade for the world... the quiet of a roasting hot summer's day where the sun shines through the leafy sky alley. The perfume that fills the evening air as every flower blooms. Midnight walks with my mother down to the water to listen to the nightingale. The tranquility and serenity of being so closely surrounded by nature in every form.
It's only when I'm here that I realise how much I miss out on by not being here. Life is confusing sometimes... but in two weeks I'm planning to be in Paris for a few days' holiday, so I'm happy enough. Anyone got a good tip for a hostel/cheap hotel?
