Thanks so much, Camila! And I admit that my “travel not being everything” is kind of a new revelation for me that I”m still struggling with. I’ve spent so much of my life focused on traveling that it’s quite an adjustment to learn that it might not always be my number one priority. C’est la vie, I suppose! I’m glad you can relate 🙂 xo

Thank you so much! What a lovely comment–you’ve made my day/week etc :). I try very hard to be honest on here but it’s not always easy! It’s more fun to only show the good parts of my life abroad, but I think it’s important to share more than just that. I’m sure you can relate! 🙂 Thanks so much for reading!

Haha I know! When do I get alone time I’m like “Ooooh, THIS is what I’ve been needing!” Lol. I’m glad (and sorry) that you can relate to the fading relationships back home. This has been on my mind a lot too, especially I think because people are realizing we aren’t just spending one year abroad and immediately going back to our old lives. I think, also, I tend to care more about keeping those relationships alive–maybe because my group of friends here is still quite small–and that sucks! But you’re right…whatcha gonna do? The ones that are meant to stay, will stay, so my mom always says 🙂

It’s true! It’s kind of a new revelation to me since I’ve spent so much of my life trying to be on the road 🙂

Thanks so much, Rachel! That means a lot 🙂 I love that I made you think ha! I was just thinking that your comments on my posts always do the same for me, so I’m glad there’s a mutual thinking thing going on here 😉 xo

Thanks so much, Jessi! That means so much to me. I’m glad you can relate! The confidence thing is huge, and I agree about learning to embrace change–you don’t have much of a choice when you move to a new country, I guess 😉 or, you can fight it but it’s so much better to go with it!

Thanks, K! 🙂 I’m glad you agree. Confidence is huge and I don’t think I would have gained this if I had never moved away. 🙂 xo
