Traveling the world didn’t feel like checking boxes—it felt like opening windows. Each place carried its own rhythm, its own hush, its own way of teaching me to slow down and see differently. I remember sipping tea in a quiet square in a city I couldn’t pronounce, thinking, “I don’t need to know everything. I just need to be here.”
What stayed with me weren’t the landmarks, but the textures: the sound of market chatter in the morning, light shifting across tiled rooftops, a shared smile with someone I’d never meet again. I wandered through temples and side streets, coastlines and cafés, always chasing something I couldn’t name—and often finding it in the quietest places.
