So as i’m sat on the plane somewhere above Istanbul (41000m to be exact) the pilot has just told us to put our seatbelt on because we’re due to have turbulence… for those who don't know me so well…I hate turbulence, well not just turbulence, I hate flying but love to travel.… Go figure!! It petrifies me so so so much so as you can imagine i’m trying to distract myself by writing my blog. Can’t really say its working but hey i’ll try my best not to get distracted and dawdle.
Reflecting on the last time I came away. I think it was for the wrong reasons…I was running from life and instead of facing it, I wanted to escape and find something - what that was i’ll never know.

But in hindsight it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me. The experiences that I got to experience, all the fabulous people we met along the way just made us have such a great time. I don't necessarily feel like I found what I was running from but maybe it was just what i needed.
Now thinking to this time, I don’t know what drove me away. I was in a secure job, had good people around me, a roof over my head. I couldn't complain but I felt like there was a part of me missing and I feel like I left it behind when I got on the plane to come home a few months ago. A routine is all fine and dandy when you're settled and happy. But being in a routine and not being happy isn't much fun, when the days all seem to be the same when you go to work, gym, eat, sleep, and repeat day in day out. Don’t get me wrong theres nothing wrong with that. But for me, I needed to spread my wings and let the travel bug come bite me in the ass.
Time to be a free spirit and embrace life to the max, never know whats round the corner so take every opportunity you get.
