Hi Clare, I love what you wrote about “you’ll know at the time you made the best decision you could.” So well said.
I am also starting my career in a new place, so I am glad to hear that this helps you! Please continue to share any other gems that help…I know I could use them!
Best wishes and happy travels 🙂

I completely agree with the approach, and I also think that if, down the line, you see that you didn’t make the best decision, you’ll know that at the time you made the best one you could. It’s a reassurance that’s priceless. It’s also especially good to read this at turning point in my own life, looking to start my career in a new place. Going to keep that easy/exceptional mantra in mind!

“I wish I hadn’t traveled…” SAID NO ONE EVER.
Your bravery and love of adventure continue to inspire me. It can be a daily struggle to keep the faith – but having others share your beliefs and help hold you up is what keeps us going.
Can’t wait to visit you in your new home! For LOVE of travel is right! XO

Words of truth and strength my friend. You could not have spoken more clearly and purposefully to my big move. Leaving my home, friends and family to embark on this new international teaching job is scary and exciting all at the same time. I take the risk of losing some or all of it but I am reassured by the truth that no one ever takes a trip or a big leap of faith and regrets the adventure. However, how often do you meet people who regret never having done it while they had the opportunity.
For LOVE of travel!
