Update
After my blog-sharings, time to actually tell what have I been up to for the past 1,5 months :)Shortly, that would be saying "See you later!" to these people:
And saying hello to so so sooooo many more people that are speaking my native language.
Yes, I am back in Lithuania.
I don`t do exciting stuff as I did while I was abroad, but I am pretty busy. Studying for my driver's license, meeting friends, family, recovering lost connections, reading local newspapers, watching reality shows on TV, re-discovering the beauty of my country again, working on some private business idea, reading all the books my A`dam friends gave me for my farewell, attending AIESEC Alumni meeting, pampering myself and trying to get a job... It's all fine.
The only thing I am missing right now, is direction. As they say, when you don`t know the goal, it's difficult to score. What I want to do with my life? Should I study now or later? Which career I want to choose? Which industry? Which country? Or maybe become a nomad and travel the world? Or maybe just get married? It seems I've been thinking of this for quite a while, but the answer is not there yet, or it is changing every couple of days :) The time in hometown will be consolidation time. It will last as long as it has to last. Although I do want to spend time doing meaningful things.

Nice to see you're back to blogging!
Ah Vija... I was just reading your blog and thinking... boy I felt just like you about 5 months ago when I got back to my home town (actually I still feel that way in many ways)... and then I looked at my blog and you had commented on the same thing! Wow... totally in-sync.
Yeah I'm really excited about next year and PwC... I just wish that I could start tomorrow! But no... I have to go to uni and actually pass all the subjects and get my (2) degrees before I do that.
These 'lull' times are quite weird no? Mine has definately been... particularly cause many old friends have now moved away from Brisbane. I truly believe that the experience of returning home was 10 times harder than that of travelling and living abroad in an exciting city full of vibrant and interesting young people. It's tough and it takes a lot of time and strength to get through it. Ciao bella!
Paula, thanks dear! I will be adding blog links fo my friends soon, so now yours will be not lost for sure!
Jess, thanks for this comment! Indeed coming back is not easy. But things are looking up for me again.
I am getting accustomed to my "new life after life abroad", and after a while we`ll see... if I stay or spred my wings and fly again :)
I'm glad we share this feeling :)
One thing is for sure that reintegration is not only a process, it`s also a decision that one has to make...
All the best with PwC... I wanna ask you what is that role about, but I will do that by personal message :)
Re-integration.... I know how you feel.
Fill that tin with beer, fun, travel and friends and see where life takes you. Works for me ;-)
