What is re-entry like?
I have been back in the U.S for about 5 months. After having lived in 11 countries in the period of 11 months, I constantly find myself itching for another adventure or at least a little change in scenery.
While I love living in the U.S….there is something so unique and exciting about trying something entirely new.
The thrill that comes with being in a new place for the first time.
The anticipation and nervousness.
Knowing that you are about to learn something new, or possibly many somethings.
I love the way that traveling makes me feel and I love who I am when I travel. I admire the woman who seems so much more fearless.
The person who for some reason is willing to try things that they probably wouldn’t at home.
The moment when you realize that someone else has a better or more efficient or possibly just different way of doing something in life.
I dream of these moments and I live for them.
I love sitting at home and thinking back to past adventures. Thinking through lessons I’ve learned. Processing mistakes I’ve made. Imagining how I would re-tell a story. Wondering what different people that I’ve met are doing at this very moment. Do they ever think of me too?

Why do you travel? How does it make you feel? What about re-entry? How did it feel coming back home?
If you would like me to share more travel stories about my experience traveling to 11 countries in 11 months make sure to leave me a comment or send me an email at betsy.ramser@gmail.com.
I love to talk with fellow travelers…or simply anyone with wanderlust!

P.S. If you’re wondering what I was doing, I was on an 11 month 11 country mission trip called The World Race. Click here to check out more of my posts about life before, during, and after The Race.
