After 577 days of delaying the real world, my wanderlust was finally satiated. I now live in a teeny-tiny apartment in Manhattan’s Lower East Side, a neighborhood that combines all the things I love about the places I visited. I work for a tech start-up, and I continue to write. I’m ecstatic to be in a city whose energy rivals the excitement of non-stop travel, surrounded by a wildly dynamic group of friends and acquaintances. I’m settled, but life continues to move at the speed of light.
The past year and a half has been a wild ride, and I’ve enjoyed sharing it with you all. Thank you so much to everyone who offered advice and encouragement along the way. Taking time off after graduating from college gave me the perspective to discover what I really want from this period in my life, and it armed me with the tools I need to find it.
Until the next fabulous adventure… peace out.
