I would 100% agree with Ben that life is much harder apart. I'm not sure if it was just us being apart again, or life here in the Dominican....but life hit the pavement full speed for me when Ben left. All in the first week I had a lot going on with work, my personal life, and I moved for the sixth time in 3 years. I am now living with a woman named Sharla and her two twin 3 year old boys.
...and soon to be moving on the 7th move. I leave for Baltimore on June 8! Ben has purchased my ticket and we're both ready to start life for good together in the same place.
I am very excited to be with Ben again...and hopefully be able to have somewhat of a relaxing summer, make new friends, learn life on the East coast, etc! I can't lie and say that moving to the United States doesn't terrify me at times. ie...having a speed limit again.
But for so long, I've called this country my home, and I've been more comfortable here than in the States....but wherever Ben and I are together, we'll call it home.
