As I reflect on my travels to a new place today, I'm reminded of the mix of emotions that came with it. The excitement of exploring a new destination was high, but the journey itself was a different story entirely. From the moment I set off, stress began to creep in.
The early morning wake-up call, the mad dash to catch the bus, and the long hours spent in transit all took their toll. Add to that the uncertainty of navigating unfamiliar surroundings, and you have a recipe for a stressful trip.
As I travelled, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over me with each bus stop reached. I travelled through land with a public bus, so traffic was something I feared so much. The journey was long and stressful, but the moment I stepped off the bus and into the arrival hall, a sense of accomplishment washed over me. I had made it, finally!
The real test began as I made my way to my accommodation, navigating unfamiliar roads and trying to get my bearings, the road was nothing good to speak about, the roads were so bad filled with pot holes.But with each step, I felt more grounded and more settled.
As I look back on the journey, I'm grateful to have arrived safely. The stress of travelling may have taken its toll, but the sense of pride and accomplishment I feel now is worth it.
If you're a fellow traveller, I'm sure you'll understand the mix of emotions that come with embarking on a new adventure. And if you're about to embark on a journey of your own, I hope my experience serves as a reminder that the stress is temporary, but the memories and experiences you'll gain will last a lifetime.
