I adore this, and congratulations on your home. I personally feel that actually having some roots gives even more allowance for wandering… because you have an anchor to return to rest your bones and prepare for the next adventure. So excited for this chapter for you xx

That's a beautiful reflection Lauren, thank you. Wandering out and back again rather than wandering aimlessly ❤️

Congratulations on the house! 👏👏👏😁♥️

I'm glad you came to the conclusion you came to - our identities don't need to be explained, proven and validated by other people. You are a woman who wanders, even if you have a more permanent base now!

Congratulations on your home (it looks absolutely beautiful) and on writing this! As I think about setting up roots somewhere soon, I’ve been asking myself these questions too. Along with… what will I write about?? 😅

Nothing (and everything) has to change. I don't even know what I mean by that but there's probably a truth in the paradox. Maybe? Basically, VERY LOST is a state of mind!

This was so joyous to read! Thank you for sharing it - I will have to go back because I clearly missed the last post, and the song.
