Is it weird that I come back on here every few months to write a post updating about my life like this is my personal journal? I write these posts mainly for myself to look back on, and I don't think anybody ever reads these posts. I just want to leave behind a little piece of myself, just in case I need to remember where I came from.
Anyways. I've been travelling and working, working and travelling, etc etc for the past year and a half now. Can't say I still enjoy it as much as I did starting out. I loved it! I truly did. Everyday felt like a new adventure. I didn't feel as burnt out as a nurse back home. I loved being able to live independently from my family and being able to explore new places; have new adventures. But I think it's time for something more stable. I miss home. I miss routine. I think I just need a break from spontaneity for a bit. Don't get me wrong; I enjoyed being free-spirited and thrill-seeking, that part of me will never change! But I also can't help but to feel like I want to settle down in one place for a bit.
Now I don't plan on settling down forever here. I want to move away to the mountains, where I belong. I don't think I ever talked about this here, but I've become quite an avid rock climber. It's not just a hobby, it's truly a lifestyle (haha). I would love nothing more than to wake up in a place with the mountains in the far distance, surrounded by nature. But realistically, my plans of relocation will have to take place in the future in a couple of years. It's just not feasible at this time and my heart is telling me that travel nursing isn't what I want at this time.
I've made so many close friends during my time as a traveler. It'll be definitely hard not being able to see them as frequently. But I truly think the bonds we've made are life-long, and our paths will continue to cross in the future. Anyways, I'm currently on my last contract yet; so I'll try and make the best of it! Climbing season may be over, but It's almost snowboarding season! Can't wait to enjoy the slopes one last time before heading home for good.
