TRAVEL & ADVENTURE

9.
I have worn the same clothes for over
a year. I should replace them but
instead, I end up buying yet more
toiletries and underwear.

10.
I don’t plan when to leave a country.
I stay while I feel good and when I
instinctively feel it’s time to carry on,
I go.

11.
I started backpacking through South
America as a result of a break-up.
While I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t
for heartbreak, I have moved on both
physically and mentally. I am so much
stronger and independent now.
