the fear to leave is temporary but regret can last a lifetimeee 🌞 I often get asked why I left Australia (especially when I was living in the UK) and my answer has always been “why not?” I didn’t leave home because I wasn’t happy, or I was running from my life. I left home because I wanted more. 📦 I left a lot back home, people I loved, jobs I actually didn’t mind, but it was also a life I was way too comfortable in - that I could happily sit and accept it as it was. I wasn’t really scared to leave home, I was scared to spend my twenties living each day on repeat. 📆I worked multiple jobs, I partied on the weekends and when Monday would come back around I would do it all over again, and I was so comfortable with it all. It’s scary to think that if I accepted it I would probably still be in the same place now, 3 years later. Your comfort zone is no more than your comfort zone, and if you don’t dare to venture outside of it you will stay in the same place forever ♾️ and I think that should scare you more than booking that flight. . . . . .#moveabroad #traveller #aussieabroad #liveabroad #nomad #portugal #exploreportugal #lifeabroad
