Q: What has it been like returning stateside after life abroad?

21 visitors by Wednesday…striking indeed. (and did that include the 3 adult housemates?) Blessings on all the re-focused intentions of your Seattle life.
Moving back is so tough, but you learned so from the Danes and are actually applying it to your new Seattle life. I hope your life is richer for it, even though right now it sucks. I had a terrible time moving back from Russia, I began remembering it as I was finishing uni here and then realizing as I went through my Swedish day all the things I was doing that wouldn’t normally be in my stateside life. Happily, I got offered a job at uni so I have at least six more months of bikes, low stress, fika, slowness, friendly Anglican communists and the like. I’m enjoying every minute of it.
Loving the moth style stories by the way. One last thing, on behalf of the MacGregor clan it’s with an a. Cheers
This is beautiful.
