Going Home

I'll be honest, I've got mixed feelings about coming home. I'm excited to see my family and to start school again, but I'll miss the adventure of being in another country. This week I flew to Buenos Aires. It was amazing! (I even used and explanation point, so obviously it was pretty cool.) If I had a chance to live there, I wouldn't have to think about it for too long. The city kind of reminded me of Chicago.

I've had some crazy experiences here in Brazil and in Argentina. They make great stories. Odd things usually end up happening to me, and being here was no exception. I think they make me a more interesting and diverse person.

During this internship I've also come to the conclusion that I'd prefer to work for a company that isn't extremely large or when I have my own business don't let it become a giant corporation. I think there are a lot of flaws with that type of organization. Finance isn't so bad, but I think I'd really like to work in a different type of area; say, deciding strategy for the bank or who money should be lent to. I think that would be really awesome.

I'm really grateful I had the opportunity to learn some Portuguese. I think knowing languages will be come increasingly important. I think the next language I'm going to try to tackle will be Indonesian or German. We shall see. Anyway, thanks everyone for reading the blog and hopefully I'll keep writing once I start school again.
