The Little Things

Our final papers are due tomorrow, so I'm reminiscing about our time in Asia and the small things I was so looking forward to upon our arrival.

So here's the list of the top things you miss about Cincinnati and the good old USA when travelling abroad:

1. Skyline Chili - checked this one off with a Regular 3-Way on the way home from the airport
2. Water (from the sink) - who knew this was something I took for granted?!
3. Normal teeth brushing techniques - my Asian teeth cleaning ritual went something like this:  fill the cup halfway with water, dip the toothbrush, apply toothpaste and brush, spit and rinse with a small sip of water, stir the toothbrush in the remaining water to clean... GROSS
4. English - AHHH, the ability to understand exactly what was being said the first time!
5. And of course, family and friends! 

Travelling is fun, but coming home is great, too!
