Staying in the same city…

Eating the same 4 meals…

Walking the same cracked sidewalks…

Talking to the same 6 people…

It dulls the edges of your spirit.

Your brain needs contrast. Neuroplasticity thrives on novelty, not routine. And life loses flavor without surprise.

That’s why I travel. Not to escape, but to remember that I’m alive and feel that’s childlike awe again. To rewire old patterns. To let new languages, faces, and smells rewild my nervous system.

Stop overdosing on sameness.
