Old Friends

Dear Readers,

Today I will write you about my Best Friend, this picture was from her first experience in Germany, Munich. This little Mexican-Argentina Girl was my Partner- in- Crime during my late teens and early 20s… To be honest, at first we hated each other. That is because we had different point of views, but at some point we found something in common and everything started to change.
With her I learn so much about true-lasting-Friendship, life and love. Together, we enjoyed coffee mornings and Mate afternoons.  She became part of my family as I became part of hers. The University time was an amazing period of my life, sadly everything that starts has to end at some point…

I moved out from my home country and meet new people, had incredible experiences and learned new languages. In the other hand, she stayed home at her parents’ house *which is something common in Mexico.  As girls, we don’t actually move out of our parents’ house until a big life event happens like getting married, or if you are lucky… get into a Master Degree in another city *country… get hired in a job in another city.

Although this may be true for most girls, it wasn’t for me. I travelled to the US 1 year to practice English before my Master, but I never imagine I would meet the love of my life and moved even further to another Continent… :)
I have learned a lot in these last years away from my home country, but from time to time I find myself a little sad, and it is hard to realize that life will not be the same as it was before, everything changes and sometimes faster than  the blink of an eye.

In conclusion, when you move to another country, your old friends will not be there to be your partner in crime like always * need to find new ones* But they will always have a place in your heart and your life. So be happy when you get to see them and enjoy the moment you share in space and time.

Sometimes life is even better than what you had imagined.

PS:
I have the same picture of my first time in a Biergarten: a huge Brezel in one hand, a huge Maß in the other and a big smile :D

Sincerely,
Raissa
