Standard Last Words (Final Post)

As is customary, this will be a brief, un-detailed reflection upon my time here and a pathetic excuse for a goodbye to those I couldn't see in person.

I can't even begin to describe how amazing my time has been here.  As I said in my previous post, this place has become a second home to me.  I'm sure I'll constantly be making references to experiences and funny sayings back home and no one (except Paul, Mike, and Amy) will know what I'm talking about.  I wouldn't have it any other way.

To the 27 crew (this includes Jon and Jaddy): you are all crazy people.  Keep it up.  I expect no less when I see all of you again.

To the Stevo crew (this, for simplicity's sake, includes Jacob): I love all of you.  You're another family to me.  I'm still trying to think of all the family relationships this would entail, but all I can muster up so far is that Watto would have to be the father (skin color aside).  Seriously, if his hair turned gray, I wouldn't notice.

To Michelle, Nicci, Filli, Tany, and Guy: I miss all of you dearly and it'll only get worse when I get home.  I actually tear up a bit when I see the picture of all of you together.  I can't wait to see all of you again and I promise I will try my best to make it back to Switzerland next summer.

To Diane: Keep spreading the positive message of Drum & Bass.  We DnB'ers need to make sure the good word gets out.

To John: I totally wish I could have asked you to help me with my rugby skills.  My younger brother is picking it up quickly and I need to get better than him.  Perhaps another time when I return...

To Monique: I promise to try and speak with better English.  And I'll try to retain my manners when I get home.  Also, I'll be sure to let you know if/when I make plans for the European backpacking thing.

Finally, to anyone I missed, thank you very much for making this trip the spectacular experience that it was.
