Going back home after 6 months in Norwich

Upon returning to the United States after spending 6 months in Norwich, England, I found myself to be quite tired. Obviously jet lag catches up with you, and all of the traveling, but I spent much of my summer relaxing. I found I had a lot of things I missed about living in Oregon, the nature, and certain places that I always go to with my family. I found it to be easier to return home, in the sense that I wasn’t nervous to meet people; but also difficult because I was leaving the people I met in England, and that was for a more indefinite amount of time.
