I'm Back!

Firstly, I apologise for my absence over the last month. My blog, along with many other things in my life that I adore have been sadly abandoned by me due to travelling through Europe over the last month. Whilst this might seem entirely selfish, it's something you need to do.

 In brief, I visited the following places;
-London, England
 -Dover, England
 -Calais, France
-Belgium
-Amsterdam, Netherlands
 -Rhine Valley, Germany
-Munich, Germany
 -Innsbruck, Austria
-Venice, Italy
-Rome, Italy
-Florence, Italy
 -Lucerne, Switzerland
-Paris, France
 -And lastly, back to London, England.

 It's funny, how much you can pack into a month and how incredibly your life can completely change. I guess this is why travelling is such an impacting experience. You learn exactly what matters and what doesn't, and when you do a trip like the one that I did, you are forced to learn a lot more about yourself, even some things that you might not want to know.

 November has been the biggest journey for me so far and I believe that it is impossible for me to go back to the person I was before I experienced what I have in this time. From sex shows in Amsterdam to Concentration Camps in Germany, my eyes were opened so widely to this beautiful yet trecherous world that we are in. It is so easy to become captivated in our everyday lives, caught up in irrelevant things.
But question, if all of this was stripped away from you, who would you be? Disconnect yourself from your every day life, from your problems and from your families and friends and figure out exactly what it is in your life that you want, figure out exactly who it is that you are.

 This life is so short and it scares the shit out of me everyday. Say exactly what you are thinking, explain what you feel and deal with the consequences when they matter instead of wondering what if. The people that have never left are all that should matter. This world can be so ugly, so you need to make it exactly what you want it to be. If there was anything that I learnt through my travels it was that you have to be the person you want to be, do not let the opinions of other people sway your thought-making process, because at the end of the day, you are the only person that has to live with the decisions that you are making.

Act now, because within an instant it could be too late, and regret is the biggest debt a person could ever have.

 I've missed this blog immensley, I'm glad to be back ♥
