The epic 63 hour journey is over and even Heathrow's T1 looks like a little bit of heaven!
No such thing as reverse culture shock for me! Obscene amounts of shopping, eating and bubble baths but it is fantastic to be back and seeing everyone again. Everything looks so smart (except Stirlingshire roads, which are actually about as potholed as those in Malawi). Trains are brilliant! Marks and Spencers is the muts nuts and I must have lost weight - dropping a dress size is a sign that I should be buying more dresses!
5 days, 7 fish dinners. 5 diff types of cheese, wine, haggis. yum yum yum yum yum (will go up a dress size before returning home!)
I do miss the warmth. My skin is already getting crap again. And we do miss the simplicity of our little hut, a bit. thinking of everyone back in Malawi but very very happy to have a sneaky wee month at home before getting a final blast of adventure.
Especially after popping back into the office. Lovely people, interesting work (and I'm glad to have a job to think about given the way things seem to have been in the past year). But wow, I'm going to enjoy the next 6 months before resuming my position behind a desk!
Yay
