Breaking Habits

I feel that at the moment I have lost a lot of my good habits and started forming some really bad, need changing habits. The young explorer in me is wondering what has happened and who the person I now am is. I have always prided myself on having an adventurous spirit and yet here I am, on the verge of going to India, one of the most exciting and interesting places in the world and I'm shaking with fear. I understand that a lot of people would feel that way and its normal, but I'm not a lot of people. How can I have this crazy adventurous spirit and be terrified of leaving my comfortable life here in Switzerland. And there, I believe, lies the problem. It happens to a lot of people I'm sure who get comfortable jobs and settle in to a place, leaving and going somewhere new becomes a massive challenge that people who have no base don't have to face. When you are already a nomad, travelling and living out of a suitcase, going one more place before you stop travelling is just something that happens at every "last stop" you reach.

Once again I am moving out of my comfort zone, going across the world to one of the craziest countries in the world and I am not afraid. I am excited and going to make the most of every minute that I am there.
