Since coming back to England I literally haven't stopped moving. From Horsham to Bath, from Bath to Liverpool, back to Horsham and finally settling in London. It's been a struggle trying to decide where to live, and trying to work out if that was the right choice once I'd made it. London is completely different to anywhere I've lived before, and from the London I'd seen on day and weekend visits and admittedly the first week of living here I did wonder if I'd made the right choice. But it's been about a month now and I know I've definitely made the right decision. London is everything I'd hoped it would be and more. There's opportunity, optimism and a real chance to make something of yourself. I've always felt that my life was on hold and that I've been waiting for it to kickstart itself and I really believe that moving to London is the change I was desperate for. I loved Bath and all my friends and my life, but while I had the best 5 years there was always something missing for me. I was never truly content and now I've moved I think I'm on the right track to getting my life where I want it to be. Obviously it's gonna be a struggle and and uphill one at that but I'm prepared now to give it my all and do anything to get the job and the life I want.
Going travelling has also opened my eyes to other horizons and possibilities I'd never considered before. I thought that once I'd returned from my 3 months away I would have quietened that little voice in my head, that urge to explore the world. Far from it. If anything it's just made me wanna see more and do more. Not only do I want to return to all the countries I visited (Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, China) I've added more to my list - Europe, Fiji, Bali, Korea, Canada and many more. Making the decision to go away was one of the best things I ever did and really changed both my life and my perspectives and I'd honestly recommend it to anyone.
