My last night in Matera was so much fun! Around mid afternoon my host sister and her friends took me to the bar for my goodbye party. Later that night we went on our usual walk of the town, passing by shops, talking, eating, etc, and then my host sister went to her boyfriend's car to get her laptop and showed me the most beautiful slideshow ever!! She and her friends put it together for me and it was pictures that I took from the beginning of my stay in Matera. I cried watching pictures of me with my host sister and her friends go across the screen. It was so beautiful! :)
My leave was very emotional so I won't put all the details here, but now I'm in Rome and back with all the other AFSers! When we got back together it was like we never left each other. We played cards almost all night and told each other everything about our host families! The AFS leaders took us on a tour of Rome and we were allowed to go shopping!!! Now, I only have today left in this wonderful country because my traveling starts at 6 a.m tomorrow. After having such a great summer, I am happy to finally be coming home.
