Leaving

So here I am in York, back on campus and settled into my new house ready for my Masters (well, I'll keep telling myself that!). I got here last Wednesday, after packing all my things from the caravan and going out for dinner with everyone at the farm to the local Himalayan restaurant. It was an emotional goodbye, but I'm going back this coming weekend for a party so it's not as bad as it could be. I know I'll stay in touch and visit. I have had a truly terrific past six months at the farm; I have learnt crazy new skills I never even dreamed of learning, made great, fabulous friends and met Will. The experience has taught me a lot about the world of farming and country life, and given me a much better idea of the kind of life I want (which is something I was not necessarily expecting from the placement). I'll never forget my unbeatable summer at Turville Heath.
