real life.

big beach.

“You are the books you read, the films you watch, the music you listen to, the people you meet, the dreams you have, the conversations you engage in. You are what you take from these. You are the sound of the ocean, the breath of fresh air, the brightest light and the darkest corner.

You are a collective of every experience you have had in your life. You are every single second of every single day. So drown yourself in a sea of knowledge and existence. Let the words run through your veins and let the colors fill your mind until there is nothing left to do but explode. There are no wrong answers. Inspiration is everything. Sit back, relax, and take it all in."

Everything & nothing.

Getting ready for my departure was pretty brutal this past week being sick without any time to rest. Go figure day one here was a trip to the doctors. BUT, a trip to the doctors. With a scenic route of the beautiful ocean. On a moped. In 88 degree weather. Can't beat it!

So far, things are more than good- Besides the fact that my voice is barely hanging on. I sound like I'm 90 and on my death bed. 💀 Most of my day has been setting up my room. Its coming along! Our house is pretty small but so cozy- ( Pics to come). It's definitely a simple life over here. Such a refreshing feeling to be in an environment where materialism doesn't define you. 

As I was standing in line through security check at the airport my nerves were taking over. It's an undefinable feeling leaving everything you know. Going from such a routine- to scratch. At dinner last night, a new friend of mine asked what I do for a living. I replied, "I don't know yet". 

I read a quote a while back, 

"If you have nothing, then you have everything, because you have the freedom to do anything, without the fear of losing something." 

Everything and nothing all at once. It's an odd feeling, to have such freedom and a self controlled instability- more or less. Job hunting will come soon. Step one is getting better. I think a day at the beach is in store for tomorrow. I haven't even been in the water yet! 

Ps: The sunsets here are mind blowing, over and over and over again.

It will take me a couple days to get going with this, but i'd love to share my story with you. Check in every once in a while!
