A little girl, a high school student, the first in her high school, a little girl spoiled by her dad who took her on a trip every summer, every summer we discovered a new country, I saw Egypt, Morocco, Malaysia, turkey Dubai…
By dint of traveling and having good times abroad, I hated returning home, I always dreamed of a life full of movement and energy. I had my baccalaureate and I did everything I could to get the chance to study abroad as I felt that the life of my summer holidays that I used to have is the same life that I will have where I will live and study throughout the year.
I came to Glasgow! full of dreams, joy and ambitions… The month of April, my first month away from my country, I begin to notice that the days are very long compared to my country; I spent days after days I started to get used to life in the United Kingdom, I spent the summer and I did not return to my country during the holidays.
The new academic year begins and I am still in Glasgow, winter begins with the short days the sun sets at 3:30, the skies are grey most days, the low temperature is the title of every week in Glasgow, the foggy, the Wind…. My days are starting to have the same mood every day, I try to go out to change the mood, walk in the alleys, parks, walk around the city, but without any results, always with a sad morale.
What is happening? I have always dreamed of living abroad, I have always said that I will never be bored abroad… The grey sky worries me, despite the beauty of the alleys and buildings, everything is beautiful, the old buildings with their charm and their reflection on modernism give a unique artistic aspect.
The north of the world is beautiful, Glasgow is beautiful but it's sad, winter is dark here , grey and empty.
The emptiness of the alleys gives the appearance of a ghost town. In a rainy day, I had to go out to do some shopping but everything was empty, there was almost nothing I had the impression that only me existed on earth and suddenly I remembered the city Chernobyl in Ukraine it Looks like a disaster has passed and the town has been emptied. Although I always wanted to visit Chernobyl out of curiosity, I wanted to try the feeling of being in an empty place alone without anyone, without any noise, but I can't live long with its feeling, it kills.
