This is not the end, just a thank you

Apologies for the low volume of posts recently. I have some more stuff to post but I have been ridiculously busy. Tomorrow though, I will be on holiday and will be travelling about so it may be a little quiet until I get back home. But, enough about me. I just met a friend for coffee & it got me thinking about my time here and the people I have met.

I just want to say this, thank you to everyone who has touched my life in some way while I have been here. Whether you just came up and chatted to me, whether you invited me to meet your friends and spend an evening with you. Whether you indulged me by coming to an American Football game with me or some other random thing I wanted to do. You made more of an impact on my life than I probably did on yours. Most likely none of you know quite how much it means to me to have had people reach out, almost strangers, and offer that arm of friendship and companionship. Having offers to join people on different occasions, even just for coffee makes what can essentially be a lonely existence, so much brighter. Thank you & if you are ever my side of the world, wherever that is, I would love to return the favour!
