Too many thoughts

"That's how you know you love someone, I guess, when you can't experience anything without wishing the other person were there to see it, too"- Kaui Hart Hemmings, The Descendants

Finally back in Maastricht and ready to settle down for the next 3-4 days before I begin on the last few trips down to the Hague, Amsterdam, Eindhoven and London and then finally, finally, Singapore. 

Backpacking for 3 weeks is no joke. So many back aches, all that shifting from city to city, hostel to hostel, nights of bad sleep because I-don't-know-why, the fatigue that catches up real quick and the horrible fact that you can't settle down and call a place yours. But still, I've made plenty of good memories the past 3 weeks - things I wouldn't trade for the world. As time goes by, I start to amaze myself with the ridiculous thoughts that flow through my head and my ability to be increasingly independent. 

I think exchange has done me well.
