Ok, so one week into this trip, I have no more clean clothes, am sharing rooms with between 5-9 people, don’t have the shower I am used to showering in, and have to buy water in bottles since it isn’t at all drinkable here.
If you’re wondering if I am sick of it, or don’t feel like living like this, well actually I feel the exact opposite way. I love it! 😍
Sure, it took a bit to get used to, but living minimalistic and seeing how many resources aren’t available in some countries compared to your own, makes you appreciate your life, everything you own, and possibilities you have just so much more. I have never felt more thankful in my life!
I believe most people, including myself, too often get caught up in routine, not taking enough time to slow down and focus on what we already have. Instead there is a trend of focusing on what we don’t have.
Nothing is ever good enough. With this mindset, I am convinced that, if we can’t focus on the richness of our lives right now, we will never feel as if anything we have is enough. These are just my thoughts for today... please enjoy the pictures, I enjoyed taking them😁
