A decade later standing in front of my FIRST home away from home 🏠🤍. At this moment I couldn’t help but recall all the feelings I had felt when I first entered this apartment, big bags, big dreams , away from home, family friends and in general, familiarity. It wasn’t an easy feeling, as much as I was enthusiastic and thrilled that I was going to study my dream course in the university that I had wanted to, I was also equally nervous. Nervous because I didn’t know the place, or anyone, fear for the harsh Minneapolis weather etc etc and other million questions were on my head. It was also my first time going to live with a roommate and I must say that @dootika who forever will be my first roommate made it so easy for me 💞.

When I look back now, I do think this place is what shaped the person I am, taught me independence and facing challenges (all kinds) head on. It also made me realize the importance of fitness. Minneapolis as everyone knows can get lonely and depressing, I managed to make the gym my friend. A habit that started there has continued with me until now.

– My first snow, I cried in enthusiasm
– My bed with Murphy (teddy) and the fist tank – both which was gifted by my brother. He named the teddy and quoted Murphys law as the reason – everything happens for a reason
– The first meal we cooked in the house
– My study desk
– As I got ready to defend my thesis
– selfie game was strong even then 🤪
– Would it have it no other way
