Its been more than 2 years since I last wrote something.. I dont know whats pushing me to write today. Maybe because its late at night and its my last week in Spain as an erasmus exchange student and Im feeling strangely melancholic. Im about to abandon a country I loved, people I ve made strong bonds with, a lifestyle that was careless and fun. Im about to exit this magic bubble I ve been living in for the last year and enter real life.

I ve fallen out of love, and it was painful, but not as painful as I thought it would be. Life goes on and there are people to meet, places to go, opportunities waiting to be seized.

This summer Im going to the states, Im gonna be a chaperone for 16-year-olds in a peace youth camp and thats a big challenge! Turkish and Greek Cypriot teenagers that come together to meet each other and to talk about the Cyprus problem,to understand each other,to make friendships, to realise that the so called "enemy" has a human face. I feel that my responsibility is big, I have to give 100% of myself and make sure those kids learn a thing or two. I wanna make sure I learn a thing or two from them! It gives me something to look forward after I leave Spain. I have to be prepared though, its not gonna be piece of cake. Im worried and I know I shouldnt. I dont believe in myself enough, I dont think Im responsible enough. But if they picked me to do it, they must know what they are doing.

Well, I have time to prepare. In the meantime I might aswell enjoy my last week as an erasmus exchange student. Granada is an amazing city, Im gonna miss everything so much. But this circle has to close, I ll always have the memories.
