Five weeks. Five weeks is all it took for me to completely and irrevocably immerse myself into the lifestyle of the people in Bosnia. Five weeks is all it took for me to get attached to all the people I met, and strengthen the bonds with those I already knew. Five weeks is all it took for me to learn that traveling isn’t about sightseeing; it’s about learning the ways of the people. Five weeks is all it took for me to realize the importance of filling in the gaps of geography in today’s world. Five weeks is all it took for me to remember how important it is for one to remember their roots. Five weeks is all it took for me to reestablish the importance of the bond between family. Five weeks is all it took for me to realize the importance of finding a compatible lifelong companion from the example my own grandparents. Five weeks is all it took for me to realize that even though some may not have much; they always have their hospitality to offer.
Five weeks came and went in the blink of an eye. Yet in that time frame many fond memories were created- thank you to all who made my trip memorable along the way. Thank you for an amazing five weeks.
