I was recently reading a blog post by The Fernweh Wolf titled “How To Live Outside Your Comfort Zone.” As you can probably imagine, she gives you tips on how to live outside your comfort zone. Simple things like saying yes more, starting a new hobby or embracing change. As June 25 gets closer and closer, and things are starting to get more real, I’m trying to embrace the uncomfortable feeling I have in my stomach about leaving everything behind. About stepping out of my comfort zone.

Don’t get me wrong, I am excited beyond measure, but it’s also a lot of change really really fast. One day I’ll have a house with roommates I see everyday, a closet full of clothes, and my parents only an hours drive away. And the next I’ll have no house, no roommates, one suitcase full of all necessities, and my parents will be on the other side of the world. That’s scary is it not? 

But while always being someone who is generally open to change and will embrace new and exciting opportunities…it thrills me and fuels my excitement. We often get so caught up in our jobs, or drama with our friends and family, that we forget to enjoy what change and new opportunities can bring. You never know what will happen or who you will meet when you start putting your toes in the sand outside your comfy bubble. 

I guess what I’m trying to say, is that I’m scared…but I will not let that stop me from embarking on this adventure. I’m going to embrace my fear, and dive head first into the unknown…outside of my comfort zone. 

Care to join me? 🙂

‘Till later…

Ciao!
