OC>LA>BCN>LA>SVL
That constant back and forth has been my life for the past five years, but my nomadic days are ovah [we'll see how long this lasts]. No more hostels, couches, or airport benches, I am cozy and comfortable drifting off to sleep in my own bed once more. Yep, my passport is --- well I don't even know where my passport is but it is not coming out again anytime soon. Got some pretty sweet stamps on it though. Did you know that you have to get a visa stamp when you go to Turkey? So I spent about the last month in SF tryna make it big but apparently a month isn't enough time to gain the 80 years of work experience you need to get a job these days. I was housesitting in a swanky little place for the month of June but unfortunately maybe fortunately my job search was to no avail. I decided against subleasing and sticking it out at my old job working in retail hell and swapped the fog for some sunshine.
So here I am, back at home after 5 years of living on my own. I'm not gunna lie, it's nice to have someone else do the cooking. I was freaking out about coming back and the prospect of not making it in sf but now I realize that this is EXACTLY what the doctor ordered. Literally, she told me that my stress is getting to my health and that I need to take it easy. New goal: R E L A X. Its so nice seeing my lovely friends and my daily dive into the ocean that is a block away from my frontyard is not a bad feeling either. Now that I'm sticking around for a while it's nice to know that i can buy vintage boots without having to worry about them fitting in a suitcase or get home decor from Anthropologie with the hope of having my own home to decor. Not sure how long I'm going to be in southern california this time. I'm still trying to apply to some jobs in Northern California but I think I'm going to start looking for stuff down here. I mean living at home would be a good opportunity to save some money without actually blowing it on a plane ticket. What to do with said money? I'll figure out that challenge when I face it. I still like to entertain the idea that someday I'll have some cool artsy job in NY and have some minimalist loft out in Brooklyn. A girl can dream can't she? I will put up my numerous travel pictures from my adventures soon, until then here's my dream home.
