Tonight I said goodbye to Fayez, the Saudi Arabian. He was with me for just a couple of months, but he felt like a fixture by now. He was very happy to be in my home, and said so often. He is taking a brief vacation in Saudi Arabia with his family, after which he will return to the States to study in Missouri, of all places.
Before he left he gave me a solid hug and a Saudi riyal, one of the currency notes in Saudi Arabia.
Goodbye Fayez! May you have a safe journey home and never forget the good things you've experienced here.
