Saying goodbye

This past weekend was altogether celebratory but in an ambivalent sort of way. My housemate Andrea celebrated her birthday, my friend Keith wrapped up his year in Sydney, Doug and Zach returned from an epic roadtrip across Australia, while Mona, Angela, Jasmin, and Carina each embarked on their own Australian adventures. And so, it was a weekend of goodbyes to good friends old and new.

The one good thing about saying goodbye to travel-holic friends is that you can be pretty sure you'll get to cross paths again, somewhere in the world. Reunions then become things to look forward to. Or at least this is what I tell myself to make saying goodbye a lot less difficult. :)
