There’s something about the beginning of summer that makes me nostalgic. Memories of childhood days spent running barefoot from the local pool as the heat rising from the asphalt threatens to scorch my feet, hiking with family and exploring the surrounding mountains and valleys, lazy afternoons lounging poolside complete with Orange Creamies and lots of laughter, endless nights of volleyball and trips to the Hospital Cafe, savoring gelato while navigating foreign streets…
The semester has ended and summer has officially begun for me. I am anxiously anticipating another summer spent in the Czech Republic, but before I leave I have a few more days of quality time in California with my family. This summer, as every summer before, brings promises of new adventures and the opportunity to create lasting memories and I absolutely cannot wait for it to get underway.
