This line hits home for anyone who's ever thought a new environment could magically fix everything.

It's like travel becomes the ultimate escape button, but when you realize that your baggage isn’t just physical, the journey turns inward.

That kind of forced self-reflection can be uncomfortable, but as you mentioned, it’s often a gateway to real growth.

There’s something about being far from familiarity that brings up the unresolved parts of ourselves we can no longer ignore.

It sounds like travel pushed you beyond the surface, leading to deeper discoveries about what truly mattered.

Thanks for sharing.
