Courage. It’s what it takes to go to an adventure all by yourself. Once out of your confort zone, there’s no coming back, there’s only going further. And that’s what I realized when I was in the most unexpected trip of my life. I was alone, in a big city, away from home and I just had been robbed and lost most of my Money. In that moment, alone, sitting on the floor in front of the hotel I have been, with desperation all over my face, was when it hit me: whatever happens, just think for a second, I’ve survived to 100% of the bad days i have ever had. And from that day on, I’ve never let anything put me down, whatever it is. I went there with a goal, and I completed it. And it made me so proud of myself. It’s not a beautiful story about how beautiful a place is, or how colorful can be the sky of certain places. It’s about something deeper. A trip can be so much more than just beautifulness, nice places or nice food and great places to shop. It can be about a learning experience, about changing our lives and have a perspective we didn’t before. It’s also about looking back and have the power to say “i’ve grown so much from that, and even and including because I had trouble, was the best trip ever, because it was what made me stronger, smarter a better peson.” And that place, full of beautiful lights, beautiful streets, with great food and colorful sky, made me apreciate each inch, each corner, each people I met there and think “If i just had a little more time, i could learn so much more from here”. And that’s how I said goodbye to that place, with a tight heart, grateful for the good people I met there, for all the learning I had, for the good sights and a sense of gratefulness for the experience I had. I tought I was going to fall in love with the place and the beauty and I actually fell for the unexpected, for the butterfly in the belly for the unknown, for each surprised and learned moment. And honestly, can’t wait for the next one...
