Normalizing: Canggu, Bali

Months have gone by and I’ve felt on edge. This is repetitive, you know this, but this week felt different. I felt comfortable for the first time in a long time. It was almost like a big exhale. My anxiety has lessened. I’m less needy. I’m more relax; chill, and somehow, I even felt my ability to socialize naturally come back today. Just when you think you have something figured out..

Island life is something I’ve lived for the last 5 years. I know it well. I understand it’s routine. It feels, well, normal. To just surf and not move to see temples or statues or constantly studying where to go next and find flights or whatever. To chase waves and see a place naturally is honestly quite beautiful. And I almost, almost feel the travel spirit come back, but not quite 😝.

No need to search for anything. The perfect wave will come straight for me, and I won’t even have to try.
