How interesting! It sounds like the experience gave you something important, even if it didn’t last the way you expected. Running away in the middle of the night feels oddly poetic, though. It also makes sense to me – you can love something and still miss home: both can be true, and so often are!

Ah yes, all the major food groups are represented there. Let’s keep it festive, though, and wash it down with a glug of Shloer.
