Today it has been 370 days since I came home from my trip around the world.
It wasn’t too easy to adapt to being home. Seeing my friends again was a wonderful experience for me. I was very excited to see my friends again at first but when I saw them again, it didn’t feel any different than the last time I saw them 2 years ago.This year I also met a long lost friend named Logan. I had a great time with Logan throughout the year. I had a really nice teacher too. She was a very nice teacher so it was very comfortable to learn new things with her. Also, in my class, I had some old friends in class but I also had new friends like Isa. Home was almost too easy to be comfortable in and I remembered about some stuff in the house that I forgot about.
Last year was a bit different than this year. Last year I went on a plane about 80 times but this year we went on a plane 5 times. Last year, I was with my usual family but this year, I was with my whole family like my grand parents, my aunts, my uncles and my cousins. This year was amazing because I was with more of my friends and family than when I was away. But I also loved things about our year away like when we were in Thailand like the ziplining, and elephant hills.
3 things that I learned on my trip that helped me now were:
1. Talking to others can help you a lot in life. I learned this from dad when he was talking to other people. I am practicing my french While speaking to others.
2. Learning other languages is fun.
I learned this while talking to others in french. It helped me communicate with others.
3. Trying scary stuff is kind of fun when you think about it. I learned this by ziplining about 50, 00 feet. It helped me understand that.
That’s how this year was for me.
SO great!! Bet you have fun telling your friends about all your adventures!

Dianne, I liked telling people about it but I don’t tell anyone anymore because everyone already knows.
