Where to next????
As most of you know that I’ve been travelling the world almost 3 years now
It’s been a journey to say the least. I’ve challenged myself beyond ANY belief I ever had in my inner strength.
I’ve done more than I dreamt of at 53
But what is next ?
I sit idle now for couple months and I know my feet get itchy if I sit toooo long
Solitude is good and bad, sitting with my thoughts. All I learnt of travel from Costs, cultures, safety and experiences
I still wonder what next ?
Am I done travelling? I’m NOT done learning
Where’s my inspiration?
I do lose my energy when I stay stagnant too long
Remember it’s only me
Nobody to talk to about these decisions
Is it time to just settle in one spot??
Questions I don’t know? But wondering what I need to do
Do I change gears
Thanks got all your support

You'd be surprised how many times a woman sits in her car, on her bed, in the bathroom or in the living room and quietly cries because she's so stressed, depressed, feels unappreciated, unworthy, not enough, utterly alone or misunderstood…
But, when she shows her face again, she looks perfectly fine, unbothered and she still manages to smile and go about her business like nothing is happening or has happened...
Women are some of the most resilient creatures; and we go through a lot… We are the glue that holds everything and everyone together.
If you're a woman reading this, I just wanna say, I appreciate you!!! We get tired, but we continue to P.U.S.H - Pray Until Something Happens!
Things are about to get worse… such a sad sad place this country is turning into Where is the relief?? Oh ya sent to other countries
I nearly died when I seen these prices !!! START THE CAR!!!

It’s been 23 months of gypsy living. Last 5 months back in canada , i have been enjoying familiarity of currency, language, logistics as well feeling the love from family and friends. And I’ve still not stayed in one spot long . It’s time to head out on my next nomadic adventure #solofemaletraveller #middleagedwoman #canadianbackpacker
