Well, the day has
come.
My last few
moments on the World Race…will I really be back in America today???
Not to be overly
dramatic but it kind of sneaks up on you! I have pretty much been in denial
this whole time about it ending. (They say it’s the first step…)
When you have
done something this epic, it’s kind of hard to just pick up your pack and walk
away.
In case you are
wondering what I am feeling right now…
Excited Confused Expectant Nostalgic
Exhausted Grateful Sad Hopeful
You’re left with
a sensation kind of like when you get off of a moving walkway in the airport. You
reach the ground again and try to keep walking but your body is like, “Wait. What just happened?…”
This week we have been at our final debrief in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and it has been a blast! We had our squad banquet last night in a park and it was the perfect ending. They gave out superlatives and mine was “Most likely to be asked to write a theme song for the World Race ” So true!
This has been a CRAZY, AMAZING journey and
don’t worry…the blogs and stories are not over just because the World Race is
ending for me. This is just the beginning of the ADVENTURE!
I will leave you
with a video my team made for our final debrief. You may not understand all of
the strange World Race culture but it’s still pretty funny to us. J Enjoy!
