Since I began travelling I have always had this little voice in the back of my mind saying that going home is the worst idea and to stay travelling for as long as possible but with most things in life there is an expiry date - Is there with travelling?
I have seen some amazing sights around the world and there are many more on my bucket list, I just wish there was enough money in my back pocket to fund all of these wonderful things. Having fount jobs along the way pretty easily I have had the chance to pack up & move on when the time felt right however in my latest venture of becoming an Au Pair I have spent a lot more time here than expected. This as well as the fact that I have some savings at the end intend to travel Asia and after that... well, who know's?!
For most the idea of going home is frightening to say the least and some also see this as a sign of failure within their own personal mindset, for me - well I don't want to go home however with most of my friends now having children as well as my family, and other factors going home is looking to be quite a reality after my Asia stint where I can then re-save before hopefully hitting the open road again.
What am I scared of you ask? That nothing has changed and unfortunately in most cases this might be correct. I also think I am scared of missing out, the all important phrase F.O.M.O (Fear of missing out) springs to mind! I don't want to miss my sister in law having her baby and me becoming an aunt, I don't want to miss my best friend's wedding and I certainly don't want to miss out on all the girly chit chat.
When I put all of that together it seems quite a nice thought of going home but then again I left for a reason right?...
XOXO
