Team Journal ~ Last Day in Pommern...

Thought of the day: “What you don’t learn from your mother, you learn from the world.” – Masai Wisdom

It is our last morning here - we leave at noon today. Classes aren’t in session - all students but form one are out of class getting ready for graduation. Many students are out in the courtyard cutting grass and wave to me as I head to the English Department.

School was positively buzzing, excited for the graduation ceremony.

It is so hard to say goodbye when you don’t want to leave. After lunch, we left Pommern, making our way down the bumpy, brilliantly red road, the landscape stretching around us, breathtaking and heartbreaking at once.

I am sad to look at it for the last time.

Eventually, we reached the Lutheran Center in Iringa. Our time in Pommern was officially over.
