This was a fun read. I wish I had done something like this around my college years, but I had a scarcity/insecurity mindset at the time and didn’t take risks like that. I lived abroad with my family in childhood and came to view it as a situation where I had no agency and needed to carve out niches of security wherever I could.
Aw, makes sense! I tried making trips like this at a later age (I’m 40 now. This is 21 years ago) and it’s somewhat doable to recreate if you want. The tickets are a bit more expensive but worth it if you travel a lot. I guess what I mean is: encouragement to do whatever feels right either way :) <3
