Reflections

So, three months away from the easiness and now what seem like luxiourious things from home, I thought I’d try and reflect on what I’ve learnt about myself on this trip.  

1. I get on with 98% of the world, except people that snore. They definitely make me grumpy.
2. I do not miss having a car. I am happiest when walking or cycling and I am a huge fan of public transport (hmmm, will this be the case upon returning home I wonder...)
3. Mosquitoes love my blood!
4. I can slow down (sometimes,) but need the company of a great book and a good coffee.
5. I can pretty much sleep anywhere
6. To show gratitude for the everyday things we take for granted - clean clothes, fresh drinking water, the warmth of the sun when on the summit of a mountain...
7. That my love for travel is to do not only with meeting new people, seeing new places and experiencing new cultures, but it is the sense of freedom it brings. There are no routines, no set structures, only myself to please.
8. My taste buds think avocado sushi is delicious : )
9. I have learnt patience in new measures and that what will be will be; sometimes things are beyond my control and that’s OK.
10. Finally, that I genuinely feel lucky. I live in a safe country and have a passport that allows me to see other places on Earth and as long as I have my health and a few ££, I will continue to roam.
