2 months, 19 days, 14 hours until I make my next trip. Last year this time I was just returning from Portugal where I ran my first half marathon. Shortly after that trip I was anticipating traveling to Amsterdam for National Day and then off to Turkey, Spain and Moroco for Christmas break. This year what exotic trip am I counting down for..... HOME for Christmas.
This morning as I return back to work from the EID holiday. As I'm scrolling through my newsfeed I come across a post from my well travelled, jet setting, risk taker prior colleague.. "Wherever you are, be all there." -Jim Elliott Am I really present? I look forward to being home for the holidays. The holidays is my favorite time of the year. Being abroad really helps you to appreciate the holidays with family and loved ones..... With that being said, is the excited of what awaits me take away from the excitement of the possibilities I could share with my family and loved ones when I visit/return home?
