Day 78: 1...

I have finally recorded the voiceover for the university's promotional film! Not only is that another tick on my "to-do list" but also officially the end of my film-making internship here in Latvia. The deed is done. It's definitely time for a victory dance... or six.

On another note, I have nearly finished packing! I think it might be a good idea to check my bank balance before I leave for the airport, just to see if I actually have enough to pay the baggage fees waiting to attack me.

After saying my final goodbyes, seeing clothes that I didn't even know I had packed and eating far too much jam, reality has just hit. I'm leaving Latvia tomorrow (not next week, or next month, but tomorrow!), my place of stay for the past 3 months. I have created some of the best summer memories of my 19 years of living and none of this would have been possible without my family, my home university, the Latvian university (my second university as I like to say) and my new fabulous international friends. That's my future Oscars speech prepared!

Unlike Vegas, what happens in Latvia... goes straight on my blog.

Well, most things anyway.

 Wouldn't it be great if I saw the black man at the airport?

"Our lives and existence are supported by others in seen and unseen ways, be it by parents, mentors or society at large. To be aware of these connections, to feel appreciation for them, and to strive to give something back to society in a spirit of gratitude is the proper way for human beings to live" - Daisaku Ikeda
