The end is near :( but so are Italy and Germany :)

I've always known this summer would fly by, but it's still hard for me to believe I have just over a week left in Mostar. I'm sad to see my time here end. But by meeting Lauren in Rome on August 4th, eating my way through Italy and drinking my way through Munich with Lauren and Kristine, I should find a way to drown my sorrows.

Earlier this week Sara and I gave a trauma and PTSD presentation to women and teens who experienced war trauma. The presentation we expected would take no more than 2 hours somehow turned into an informal group therapy session lasting nearly 4 hours. We were invited back to run a workshop next week, which I'm looking forward to. The women and teens are amazing people, and I'm probably learning more from them than the other way around.

This weekend is the annual Mostar Diving Competition, where divers jump and dive off the Old Bridge and try not to die. Awesome.
