Random Thoughts

Privacy and ownership are two rarities on this trip. A certain level of comfort comes with a places that you or your family owns. For example, I feel I am comfortable to do as I please in my house. However, I am staying at hostels and flats owned by other people on this trip. I cannot simply move things around or blast music. I have to constantly be aware of the people around me. While I love being out of this comfort zone it can be difficult to take after a while. Already i am yearning for just a few days in a private room of a hostel. Somewhere I can let my gaurd down-and maybe even have my own bathroom! This would be nice just every once in a while. Time spent alone and away from everyone is also something I am really beginning to treasure. As strange as it sounds I'm really beginning to enjoy showers since it is one of the only times I can be guarunteed that I will be alone. It's really lovely just to be able to relax and do something entirely rountine.
