Well, I haven’t written here for so long and that’s because I haven’t had an inspiration. It’s not because I was sad, doing nothing or mad, it was because I didn’t know what to tell you. A lot of things happened and the most important is that I am happy here. We travelled a lot, I mean as much as we could, we met new people, also as much as we could and we had and we’re still having a great time.
It’s weird how at first when I came here, I thought I would feel alone, I would have no friends and this is a small city, what will I do? But then, just me and Carolina (you probably know her hehe), we were perfectly fine. You know that feeling when you feeling comfortable with someone even if you’re quiet and just doing your thing. That how I feel here with her, comfortable and happy.
We moved out to the new apartment. OMG, such an upgrade, from living in the middle age era to the 21st-century xD. A lot of stress, a lot of things to pack, a lot of memories as well, but we are happy here. I’m repeating myself with the word ‘happy’, but it’s really rare to feel like that in a new country, all by yourself, not knowing what is waiting for you, and far away from your family
I also got my first tattoo, imagine this, it’s a Portuguese word “Saudade” (Carolina has a really big influence on me, now I see that because I mentioned her like 9 times… ?). Saudade is a word that can’t be translated, it’s a deep emotional state of nostalgic or profound melancholic longing for something or someone that one cares for and/or love. Beautiful, right! I feel Saudade about a lot of things, my mom’s doughnuts in the morning, my dad’s theories about politics, my dog, my Belgrade and my love 10 013 km away from me. But hey, that’s normal right?
I would say, thank you Poland for doing this to me, and that’s exploring myself, finding myself and experiencing things I never had a chance to do. Thank you, Poland, for showing me how is it to be alone but not to feel alone. Thank you, Poland, for loving what I do, and having a chance to meet all of these people who are the reasons why I don’t feel alone here.
Thank you!
