A moment of truth- writing has never really been "my thing". Growing up I never particularly enjoyed it or considered myself good at it. While true, I am someone who loves to express ideas, share stories, and dig deep into vulnerable conversations (aka the good stuff).
I decided to start a blog after making the decision to move abroad. Uprooting yourself and moving to a completely foreign land alone is one of the most exhilarating yet stressful experiences one can have. Through numerous other blogs and stories posted online, I have felt so comforted and reassured that this transition hard, yet possible. I'm hoping that my stories and posts here are not only share my experience with others who are interested but also comfort those who are on the edge of making the jump into a new reality. The jump, really, is the hardest part.
"Travel isn't always pretty. It isn't always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that's okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind." - Anthony Bourdain
