The Struggle

I've been in Dublin for a week now and I've spent a good portion of my time sightseeing and trying to get my life back into some kind of order. For someone who's literally never travelled before, this has been an incredibly big adjustment. There's so much work that goes into an International move, I've admittedly felt overwhelmed and unsure if I made the right decision.

​With that being said, I've been enjoying the experience and everything that comes along with it. I've been lost countless times, struggled to switch my phone over, missed several buses, and encountered many other challenges all within my first week. I wasn't expecting this to be easy and it certainly hasn't been but the point of this was to challenges myself. I wanted new experiences, new challenges, and new everything, and I've certainly tried to face these things head on. 

​There's something so rewarding about taking this kind of chance and throwing caution to the wind. My emotions have been a roller coaster going from positive to overwhelmed in seconds but despite this, I'm here and I'm trying. All I can do is my best and that's exactly what I'm doing. 

I've found a place to live but also spent quite a lot of money as well. I'm in the process of finding a job which is turning into a debacle thanks to this hurricane. I skipped handing out CVs in favour of online applications but will be printing out CVs tomorrow to hand out with hopes of finding a job by week's end. Cross your fingers for me.

​This journey is hard, stressful, and enjoyable at the same time and I look forward to returning to my regular routine of blogging, working, and activism. I think once I can return to my routine I'll start feeling more positive. Until then, I'll continue enjoying this ride of uncertainty because it's all I can do right now.

HAPPY VEG
