Comparting Departures

Dad wanted to me to compare how leaving Zambia compares to leaving DC for Zambia. Some things are the same – doing lots of eating and hanging out with my friends, running last minute errands, and avoiding packing. Other things are different – coming to Zambia I was coming off a month of traveling around visiting people and not having my own space, and now I’m headed back to somewhere I don’t have a place to live. Obviously I didn’t know a lot of things about Africa before I came but I felt really well-prepared by Training Week. I don’t yet feel “really well-prepared” for NYC or law school. Mostly I just feel anxiety.
