    I'm in Argentina right now. There are 10 days left. I actually don't have an idea how to handle my life back in Germany. Great Video!

      Olaf Heinz bin gerade auch seit 8 Monaten auf martinique und habe keine Ahnung wie mein Leben in 2 Monaten weitergehen soll... ich habe das Gefühl nichts mehr über meine deutschen Freunde zu vermissen und habe Angst das ich ersetzt wurde...

      Olaf Heinz How was the last day in Argentina and your first day back in Germany?
      I have an exchange student from Germany and he’s here in California, USA and I’m kinda worried what the last day will be like and what he’s going to go through

      I’m into a girl from Germany who’s an exchange student. I’m not even sure if she likes me but she’s a year older and we’ve become good friends I feel and not sure how she feels though. I’m struggling to find a way to ask her to homecoming.. I literally feel like I need her. I keep getting told to move on but I don’t think I can 😂 she’s literally the most amazing person I have ever met. Please let me know what to do.

    This is the most amazing thing I've heard... I'm about to leave the US, my host country, in two months. Time is fast and my exchange year is almost over and, your words made me cry... Thank you for this awesome words and voice!

    I don’t have words to say how I relate to this video. I lived in San Diego for 11 months and just got back home. Memories will stay in our minds forever despite the distance that separate the two different worlds which are now part of me.

    It is amazing this feeling that all the exchange students share at the moment. I loved your video, I came back a few days ago from México, and I am still not able to explain to my friends and family how does it feel.

    This describes it so well! I've been in Wales and just said goodbye to my best friend here who went home today! I'm going home in 3 days. On one hand I can't wait but in the other I don't want to go! But all in all I couldn't have said that any better than you!

    This has really touched my heart and I totally feel you... I was an exchange student in Malaysia in 2014/2015 and it's been 10 months since I got back to Italy, my home country, and leaving Malaysia was the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life. I miss everything about Malaysia. I miss my host family, my school, my teachers, my friends, I miss speaking malay. The toughest part was saying goodbye to my boyfriend, a malaysian indian guy... within a few days it's gonna be one year since we are together despite the distance that tears us apart, but as you said, distance is a test of love, and those who are able to stand it and overcome it, can prove the world that true love does exist, because distance means nothing when someone means so much. My exchange year in Malaysia has changed me a lot and I will be eternally greatful to all the people I met there who made my experience so beautiful and precious. Always cherish those memories and share your experience with as many people as you can. All the best :)

  • @djblades

    I will also add that missing someone is about how much time has passed without them it’s doing something and wishing they were there but realizing they aren’t and wondering where they are right now and what they are doing.

    • @djblades
      @djblades ปีที่แล้ว

      Also I’ll add that worst pain is just wondering or knowing your friends are out there doing something miss you but also making fun memories without you there
