Soon my stay here in the wonderful India is going to end, and although I am going to miss some of the things that make this country very special, like  the delicious gulab jamun (an indian dessert that is so yummy!!) I think it is time to go back home and write a new chapter in this big book of life.

Something very important for me is being home, for me home is in the US, although I can't say that I haven't felt at home in all the places that I have been living all this years, I think it has to be because every single place in some way becomes part of you and all this countries have also showed me different ways of living I didn't know existed. 

Because I am renting an apartment here in India and because my husband and I knew that we weren't going to be here for a long time, we decided not to spend a lot of money on home decor. It has been really hard for me because I love everything about decorating the house, it brings me wonderful memories because when I was younger I used to help pick up decorations and furniture with my mom for our house. But now that I am getting ready to go back and start building my own home(one more time...) I have created a list of 5 things that I think are very important, specially if you want to indulge yourself and feel special in your own palace.
