Leaving New York is never easy

It’s been a year since my “tech fellowship” at Talking Points Memo ended, and I decided to spend a month backpacking around Eastern Europe. Mentally I’m in a totally different place now, (a better one) and my stress is lower than ever. I feel like I have lived 10 years since last Memorial Day, but they’ve been good ones. I can’t help but wildly extrapolate—if I’ve come this far, why wouldn’t I be able to achieve my most outlandish goals for the next 12 months?

No matter what the future holds, there is nothing better than looking forward to a trip abroad and then taking it. If I were very rich, I would travel exactly the way I do now: staying in hostels, meeting new people, exploring the city on foot at a relaxed pace, with no goals and plenty of time for reading. Life the way it’s meant to be lived.
