gone 'til november (✈️😎✌🏽...a brief hiatus)

wyclef’s “gone 'til november” has been stuck in my head all week. i think i may have sung it to some friends over a glass of wine on friday night, even.

but it’s for a good reason! me and this weekly little dose of tunes will be taking a brief hiatus until november. i’m traveling to marrakech, morocco on friday for a yoga and meditation workshop, and then the following tuesday i’ll be heading to lisbon, portugal for five days of delicious €4.00 glasses of wine, art museums, and the pleasure of exploring a new place without much of an agenda.

i’m going solo on this trip, which is both exciting and terrifying. i don’t speak french, arabic, or portuguese, but i’ve been attempting to learn a few words, and if worst comes to worst, i’m sure it’ll make for a good story.

it’s been a long time since i’ve done something that feels truly “new” and out of my comfort zone, and this trip is a welcomed endeavor in expanding it a bit. scientists actually call this, “reaching a state of optimal anxiety.”

so, here i go. me, my optimal anxiety levels, this playlist, and only a carry on. you can follow along on instagram, if you’re so inclined.

i hope that this playlist inspires you to find a few ways to expand your comfort zone this week. if you do, reply and let me know, i’d love to hear it.
