It’s like you took the thoughts right out of my head and put them directly onto paper. I love the intentionality you are moving into this next season of “waiting” and am definitely going to use this reframe as I wind down from my travels at the end of the year!

Hello Sophia, thank you so much for your comment and sharing your thoughts! I'm glad that it resonated with you. It's comforting knowing that others feel the same and that we aren't alone in our feelings and thinking. Wishing you the bets transition in and out of travels, I definitely can relate!

Love this newsletter! I can relate so much after doing 2 long trips almost back to back and each time I came back feeling a bit depressed but also I enjoyed the stillness of coming back to a routine and a chance to reflect on my trips and take it all in. In the moment, it’s too chaotic but after it’s over you get to process everything and cherish the memories that your brain has been collecting 😆 Also I’m glad that we got to meet for the first time and our trip was the beginning of our long adventures 🥹

I’m glad you find it relatable too, Reem. Especially with big trips like both of us had this summer, coming back to the place we currently call home can feel strange. This year it’s making me think about what place I’d like to call home for the next few years and the lifestyle I want to build. Also our trip was pretty insane the more I think about it and reflect back 🥲Thanks for your message and sharing your reflection!
