Thanks for having me ❤️
To those of you who took part in making this past year what it was, genuinely from the very bottom of my heart thank you. Thank you for making me feel loved, thank you for welcoming me with open arms and thank you for giving me the ability to go home and share stories about the beautiful people I met here and how they truly touched my heart more than they could ever know.
Not coming from a particularly affectionate family, I’ve always struggled to show my own true affection towards others. Whether feeling awkward, fearing the perception of the wrong intention or simply not being used to psychical touch. I now sit here in puddle of my tears because I just wish I could have actually expressed how much your presence and those final days full of hugs really meant to me.
This life will always be about the people in our lives and learning how to cherish them. Life’s short, but our time with loved ones is even shorter.
I couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you again. Talk soon🫶🏼
It’s quite a wonderful thing to watch life unfold in front of us. There’s something about seeing other people go through their lives that can be so healing. People whose lives are so dramatically different to ours while simultaneously so similar.

I constantly ponder about the different ways life could go for me if I move here, do this or try that. Often times this leaves me feeling overwhelmed and anxious. I fear there’s not enough time for me to live out all these different lives. The truth is, there isn’t.
.
I wish I could leave you with advice on how to not let this truth feel daunting, but I haven’t figured that part out yet. If you’ve got any tips let me know ❤️
Officially entered my late 20’s today 🥲
.
Everything in my life at the moment including my memories have felt a bit like an illusory dream. I went from having by far the worst birthday of my life at 26 to then traveling the world living out a lot of my dreams and now I’m on the other side of the world working in a cafe again.
.
Back into routine. After almost a year of non stop movement and adventure. I feel like traveling has somehow ruined my sense of reality because it’s hard to feel satisfied living a normal life again.
I’m doing my best to find joy in the little things and reevaluating what matters in this life of mine.
Cheers to 27 friends, I miss you ❤️
