There is something serene about travel. It awakens your soul and makes you feel bigger than you really are. I think that’s what makes it so beneficial. We, as a species, walk around day to day feeling better than everyone and everything else. Travel makes you feel grounded… I think a little humility is good for the soul. Today I was doing a bit of self reflecting, and overall I think I’m going down the right track. I really hope that I can volunteer somewhere this summer, but I really need the money so that I can go back to Spain. I guess I can’t be greedy.

Have you ever been in love with a stranger? I know it sounds insane, but that’s how I feel. I feel like I have made a deep connection with someone, even though they’re lightyears away. Maybe it’s the distance I love… or maybe it’s the hidden fear of things not working out that I love. It’s funny how pain can sort of be infatuating.

I’ve been writing poetry again and it feels nice. ~Namaste
