All good things must end

Al Hoota Caves: Visited here with Liv, Lili, Val, and Emily on our last full day in Oman
(This picture is actually from online, as cameras weren't allowed in doors)

Tonight, we return to America. 4 flights, 6 cities, 38 hours of traveling, till I arrive in SLO. It has been a remarkable two months- from the sites we've seen, to the immense amount of work we've done, and most importantly, to the ties we've made and relationships we've cultivated. There are so many things, but especially, so many people, I am going to miss terribly. From Omani friends, to our teachers (literally, 3 of my favorite people in the world), to the fellow students on this program.

There is not much to say now. We made it through finals and presentations and OPIs and we withstood hardships and frustrations, all which were more than worth it. I can't even begin to thank all the people who have made this trip what it was. Just for the record, Omanis are the loveliest people ever- all so sweet, so attentive, so incredibly invested in every relationship they make. And my fellow students have served to continuously inspire me- everyone has and is doing such fascinating things. 

Thanks for reading!
