On the flip side - and I guess it's odd coming from an American - but I actually look forward to the sensory overload: new smells, sights, textures, sounds - everything. Just from what everyone has been telling me of their own experiences makes me feel as though I've been starved from real colors and real flavor and real character, and I feel ravenous and depleted and I CANNOT wait to indulge with every sense.
Despite some very sudden, plan-altering, seemingly monumental, and highly unanticipated turns of events in the past 3 months, I'm happy about where the next 3 appear to be taking me! It looks like it'll be punctuated with a lot of travel and free time to figure out what direction I want to go in, which I desperately need. I'm getting the feeling that the universe just wants me to kick back and go with the flow.
So flow I will.
