How I dealt with homesickness
Phasha Mwaura
I still remember my excitement. I had just been accepted into, and received my documentation for, a boarding school in America. But I was so afraid of being homesick.
I had already been attending a boarding school in Kenya, my home country, for almost a year and had experienced quite a lot of homesickness—so much so that my school had occasionally allowed me to go home on the weekends. And now here I was, about to move thousands of miles away, without the comfort of my parents or even the option to go home.
