🇦🇺 HAPPY 3 years in Australia 🇦🇺
Over three years ago I moved to Australia with no real idea how it would turn out. I just knew I needed a change.
It has been a vision of mine many long years. I was sick of the black cloud that followed me and lacked connections with a lot of the people around me.
There have been ups where I’ve felt happier, healthier and more myself than I ever have. And there have been downs where the distance hits hard and I miss my family more than I know how to explain.
The good stuff: 🎉
☀️ My mental health is the best it’s ever been for 10 years.
☀️I’ve built genuine, meaningful connections. Which I have never expirienced before.
☀️My lifestyle is healthier and more active, physically I am so so much stronger.
☀️I’ve matured A LOT!
☀️I feel more grounded in who I am and how I function
☀️Hot winters and daily sea swims
The hard stuff:
🥵 Missing my family and missing out on their stories.
🥵Starting from scratch more than once.
🥵Lack of security and many hoops to jump through.
🥵Making sacrifices that don’t always feel fair
🥵I don’t tan
The good stuff out weights the hard stuff time after time.
The truth is, this move has asked a lot of me. But it’s also given me a lot back.
The support from my family, even from the other side of the world, is the reason I’ve been able to keep going. That support makes every tough moment worth it.
Australia is home now. DO IT! 💜
