- In 2017, we traveled to Dominican Republic to visit family, for a wedding and because my parents were going to let my brother and I stay alone with my grandparents for the whole summer. It was going to be great, we would spend time with our cousins, i would do gymnastics there and we would have lots of fun! this is all I thought about as we spent 3 hours flying there.
- Finally we arrived! my grandparents picked us up from the airport with my mom and brother next to me and my dad infront. We drove all through my mothers home town, Moca, reminiscing about her childhood and decided to stop for some food. We talked more on the way to my grandparents home, where we would be staying.
- Like every trip we had to visit family. this usually takes around 2 to 3 days since a lot of family lives over here and we have to make sure to spend time with each and every family member. Theres usually a get together most friday nights and thats when we all get to spend time together as a group. It usually filled with people and usually a good way for everyone to catch up.
- Gymnastics was always my sport. I wanted to do it all the time, everywhere, no matter what or where I was. Since i was staying in Domician Republic for a couple months, my parents decided to let me join a gym over here and let me practice, especially since they were leaving back to ny soon. It was tricky switching from english to spanish but also kinda simple since spanish is my first language.
- After my parents had left and I spent multiple nights in my room that my brother and I shared, I began to feel home sick. I stayed up all night and slept all day getting sick and not eating at all. i was super pale, even with my tan, and didn't get out of the bed or the house. When I did I would cry and talk about how much I wanted to fly back to new york and be at home and back to my comfort zone again.
- After two weeks, of constant sickening feeling and crying, my parents decided that it was time for me to come back home. My brother was upset, but he knew why we had to go. The whole way back home I thought about how sick i felt and how much it helped me grow to be more indepent and how muh more I need to let myself just enjoy the little things and days.
