Five

This is my last week in Manchester.
My last days of internship. I'll fly back to Portugal on the weekend. 
I'm gonna miss this city. 
It was my first time out of my country, totally alone, in the unknown, lost in the crowd.



For so many times I fell in love and I was amazed. 
I've seen gorgeous places, I've tasted delicious things. 
But i've also cried, I've yelled and I've wished I could go back at once. 
I know nothing is in vain and this was my moment. And, like everything in life, it also has an end. Something new will come. 
It's always like this.

From my days here, I'll keep every laugh and tear, 
every photo I took, every moment I've lived, every despair I felt. 
All of those things made me grow.

I hope I can come back someday, on vacations. I wonder if I'll still remember the name of the streets and where to find those cute little cafes with the most delicious treats!
But for now, all I want is to take my flight back home. 
Missing everyone is the hardest thing, and I know that as soon as I see them all smiling and waiting for me, it will be the best feeling in the world.

  1. Mais nada! Mulheres a falar assim é que se quer! Adorei este teu post... e espero poder um dia também eu voltar a Manchester contigo e ver tudo o que vi contigo e tentar que o meu sentido de orientação aí seja bem melhor.
    Espero que tenhas uma boa viagem de volta que nós cá estaremos à tua espera.

  3. I'm glad you've enjoyed your time in england some :) I'm moving away from home soon, on my own to London - any tips on how to cope with being lonely or how to cope alone? I'm nervous! :( x

  4. Oh! So you're going on an adventure like I did! :) You're moving to London to work?

    The best thing you can do to deal with loneliness is avoid being at home too much. Enjoy your free time to explore London! Take loads of photos, walk around, see different places! And if you miss your family, you guys can always use skype! It's one of the best inventions ever! haha :)

    Don't be nervous! It will be okay ;)
