Whilst I've never been the one to long for my native country when I'm abroad (quite the opposite some times) - I have finally, however, come to the conclusion that staying in Finland doesn't equal defeat.
I now only dread for the future. Will I settle down, get a job, find a boyfriend, move in, get married, have kids and end up looking at the past five years as mere youth's folly?
I don't know the future but this blog has come to the end of its life-cycle. With adulthood looming around the corner I won't turn this into a ranting space for "what's to become of me?" or "why can't I get a job?" You'll get enough of that from me face to face.
Good luck for everyone studying abroad. It was the best decision I ever made. Now I only hope the rest of my life can rival it.
