Twenty years went by and I became a different person
by Olivia Fernandez from Cap Ferret, France
Twenty years went by and I became a different person. I’ve rarely come home for more than a few days around Christmas or summer holidays. My life is so different. So disconnected from the environment I grew up in.
How do I reconcile broken memories with this new reality, that although different, still carries legacy and a taste of the past? How do I reconcile the person I’ve become to the person I’ve escaped?
