Traveling the world reminded me how many ways there are to live—and how each place opens something new in you. I remember standing in cities I’d only read about, walking through markets I couldn’t have imagined, hearing languages I didn’t understand but somehow felt. And I remember thinking, “This is what it means to be changed by where you’ve been.”
What stayed with me weren’t just the views or landmarks, but the feelings: awe, wonder, humility, connection. A shared laugh across a language barrier. A still moment watching the sun rise over a temple or a mountain or a quiet street. Each trip left something with me—and gently took something too, like doubt, or rush, or assumption. I came home more open every time.
