Re-connecting with my roots

I just spent 48hrs on a muddy farm in South Wales Valley. Rain, cloud, dogs, chickens, no mobile reception.

But they weren't the things that were worrying me most. This was the 1st time in 3yrs i'd been at an event of AIESEC in the UK. The average age of the delegates was less than 20. How would they perceive this small blond guy who is STILL in this organisation they have just joined? Would I be able to share my experiences in a way that they could connect to? What would be my culture shocks?

As often happens, I built this up to more difficult than it actually was! I was made to feel very welcome. I took every opportunity to talk with people during meals and breaks, to listen to their stories and share mine. It was cold, i didn't sleep too much, but i gained a huge amount of energy and motivation!

Thanks to AIESEC in the UK for making me feel so welcome, and for making my (brief) home-coming so enjoyable :)
