- In this video, I talk about the five most important, harsh lessons I learned by moving to Seattle by myself.
If you enjoy this video, consider exploring my other videos related to moving to new cities:

I really liked seeing this from an introverts prospective, I'm about to move to a new city and I'm terrified, but I have been stagnant in my current town for far too long, PUSH ME UNIVERSE
It sounds like the universe is already nudging you. Don't worry, soon enough, you'll get that Big Push. You'll know when it's time to go. :)
jellypopcorn, your comment about introversion actually has me thinking a lot more about my experiences. Soon I will release a video, specifically about my experiences as an introvert, and how I manage those challenges. Keep an eye out! :) Hit Subscribe if you haven't already. See you soon.
jellypopcorn I’m doing the same soon. How’s ur journey going?
hiiii, ist been 1 years since ur comment. sooo.. how is it going for you ??? did u make new friends now? how r u in that new city? thanks i hope u answer im planning to translate to a new city also
Same, I've always lived in a small town but I'm moving to LA in a few years and I'm TERRIFIED to say the least. I'm going to drive and I've never really been away from family and friends but I'm also anthropophobic (fear of people, and it's not like sonething ppl relate to bc they say they do but they don't understand the severity of it) so like you can imagine the struggle. I don't plan on having roommates or pets so I'll be by myself and ill be working for myself with a monthly salary of 4k so I'll have to find a cheap but safe apartment (I've never lived in an apartment so I have no idea how the mail and everything works)
this video makes me nervous about taking the first step but i know this is what i need and i know this is what my soul wants.
Hows is it going for you?
Hows is it going for you? did u moved to anothcer city also?
telll ussss kevvvinnnnn
Mines too
I'm in the exact same position. So many worries and nerves but I'm thrilled and more excited than I ever have been
I lost my dad in Feb, turned 30 in March so emotionally, I'm a bit fragile but there's this big push for me to move to a new city as in the next month! Your video is very inspiring! Thank you!
I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦
My sister god bless you and ease your pain
Holding space for your loss 🙏🏻 I’m about to turn 30 and hoping to move alone this year! Let us know how your adventure is going.
Yes, please let us know how you're doing if you moved in faith.. Hope you're well 💛
This video is extremely underviewed. This is gold
Honestly, I was thinking the same thing, There's a lot of truth in this video, and how it was found. Very valuable.
I’m moving to a new city 3 hours away from home. Super nervous. But I’m making the most money I’ve ever made, I know no one in the new city, I’ve been able to find a place to stay with a roommate for now. But regardless, I’m so so so scared. But these are the moments that I’ve prayed for. And I can’t let the fear hold me back. No matter what my emotions tell me. Cmon universe, lead the way!
20 looking to get out in the world and this video makes me feel a lot better about moving to a new state with no connections. In the current state I’m in I almost feel trapped and lost trying to find my purpose in life. Hopefully this new beginning brings happiness and new opportunities.
Moved from Dallas / Ft. Worth metroplex and have not missed the over population from thousands of immigrants flooding in daily, insane gridlock traffic, crime or drugs. Feels so good to slow down, relax and enjoy life for the first time in 30 years. In the metroplex it was always a hectic rush with another car always 6 inches off your bumper. Stress was the norm for the day and finally I had enough and told my friends "I'm outta here, moving to a small farm community Mayberry type town where the pace is slow and people are friendlier" They were like "You'll never do it" 4 months later my house was sold, quit my job, had a garage sale getting rid of everything I didn't need or use, packed up and never looked back. I now ride a Redline Proline 26" with Bullseye components year 'round. Great cardio and zero maintenance, insurance, gas etc. Best decision I ever made!! 🙂 You cannot put a price on your mental well being and peace of mind which I now embrace and enjoy. Now I control the pace of my day, my work schedule and finally am able to spend time with God, my wife, my cat 'Lil and guitar collection on a daily basis! Don't wait till you're 49 to make a change like I did. I thought I had to stay in the city and make money, money, money which looking back did nothing but force me to spend my life at work, sitting in traffic or sleeping so I could buy a new house, cars, motorcycles and rooms full of stuff I could show off, but rarely used.
I’m curious, how are things now?
EVAN 🔥🔥🔥 I’m 20 too 😂
Gettin it done on your terms, without seeking anyone to validate, this is the 2020 mindset I can support as I am on the verge of doing the very same.
Dean, I love this comment. Thanks for sharing. Let's GOOOO in 2020!
Asking people for help is SUCH a big one. I had been trying to move out of the USA for years. I'm from Italy and moved here for work but absolutely hated it. I wanted to move back to Italy so bad but it's hard to find a job. One summer, while I was renting out an apartment for a month, I told my landlord at the time I was looking for permanent work opportunities. It sort of just came up in conversation but he hooked me up!! I'm moving back this summer after 10 years!!!!
Where u at now
My husband and I are moving overseas from the US to Germany for few years (or more). I feel like this experience will force me out of my rut and help me find what I really want. I've been lost most of my life. It's time to find home inside myself.
Willkommen😃
Just graduated college, nothing left in Alabama for me🤷🏾♂️ I’m taking the steps to move
Good luck
Just moved alone to a big city and it's been really hard on me mentally more than anything. This video provided a sense of comfort knowing that (hopefully) I will find my footing soon. Thank you so much for a great video! ❤
Thanks so much for the comment. How did things pan out for you, a year later? :)
Okay i literally watched videos on moving to a new city for like 2 hours now..This was definitely my favorite. You addressed all the concerns I know I'm going to face. Great content...new sub
I came across this video 3 weeks before my move across the country to Boston after graduating college. That you for sharing! This gave me some much confidence. Time to shed my fear and take control of my life!
It's great to see how a person can grow just by reflecting on the course of their own lives & learning from it. Thank you for sharing your experience and perspective, keep doing that please, you don't know who you're helping.
In a lot of ways self reflection is one of the only tools we innately have
I'm an 18 year old freshly out out of high school and have saved up about $1400. Planning on moving to NYC in a month only taking my back pack with some clothes and water. I'm going by Greyhound it will be a 46hr ride!😬.I don't know a soul in NYC and really have no plan, I'm pretty scared but excited. Everyone is calling me crazy but I feel like this journey is well needed for me as I tend to take for granted the thing's I have such as food, shelter and family. Being 1700 miles away will be quite a challenge but hopefully will make be a better person as my journey continues.🗽🌆🏙️....oh btw any extra tips or advice 🤷🏽♂️ 😅
Lg, I'm really excited for you. You will face unforeseen challenges, but simply remain focused on the process and do your best. Things will work out exactly as they're supposed to. Feel free to reach out to me if you think there's anything I can do to help out.
@fgh It's been a wild ride.😂 Coming from a small city in the panhandle of Texas to a mega city like new York can be overwhelming at first but I adapted to the environment fairly quick. I'd say I got used to NY's lifestyle in about 2 weeks. I have 2 jobs and at first I stayed at a shelter for about a week, until I found a place on Craigslist.😅 I now live in an apartment with 5 other guys but signed no lease as I didn't want to commit to NY just yet. I will be leaving NY in 2 months though to go back to Texas to get my associates at the local community college. But will hopefully transfer to NYU after I'm done and come back to New York as I really do love it here and kinda consider myself a New Yorker now 🗽❤️...Plus I'd think the NYU admissions officer would like my essay about my whole adventure into living in NY as a broke 18 year old kid who was able to survive here and not die 😂💀... hopefully I get accepted to NYU pray for me. 🙏🏽🙌🏽
Lg Marquez crazy. I hope you make it. I never really enjoyed New York City enough where I want to live there. It’s beautiful and awesome and so much to do but I hate the cold and knew I wanted to leave. You got balls though. I’m 30 and I haven’t left my state yet until I felt secure of going over to where I want to go. I’m getting a job there soon so I’m excited.
NYC is a JUNGLE.. save atleast 10k before you come here ijs
Lg Marquez What are you getting your associates in? What made you want to move to NYC fresh out of HS?
Hi. Thanks for this incredibly honest video. It helped me realize that maybe this extreme discomfort I've been experiencing for a while now is the universe forcing me to engage and not to settle for good enough. This is after trying almost everything under the sun to make my situation bearable with no sucess. You just gave me a light bulb moment. Keep doing what your doing someone out there needs to hear it. Thanks again.
I’m doing this exact thing in Seattle right now. Came out here to get residency so I can apply to a grad program at UW. I’m sleeping on a bunk bed in a hostel-style Airbnb while I find a job and a place to live. I’ve never lived in a city this big. Just getting around is harder than what I’m used to. I don’t even know if I’ll get into this program or keep up at the jobs I’m applying to, I’m so outside my comfort zone. I know it will be good for me to at least try even if it doesn’t work out but damn… this is some of the hardest shit I’ve ever done.
What makes it even harder is I met someone in my hometown days before I left and we’re already talking about how we we feel about long distance relationships bc neither of us have felt a connection like that in ages. It’s all making me want to go back so bad, but I don’t think I’d ever forgive myself for giving up. There’s nothing there for me in that small rural town except some guy I’ve known for a week.
Anyway sorry to ramble. I appreciate your video, it helps knowing other people have done this stuff too and gotten through it.
Thanks for sharing, Alexis. Hope you're doing well!
This is literally me right now, how are things now in your new city? How about the guy?
I'll be moving to Florida in 4 days. Super excited about this life experience I'll be having in my journey in life. I always dreamed of moving to a different place and just seeing what life has to offer. Best of luck to everyone out there wanting to move out on their own and hope you are successful at everything you do in your life.
Love your red hair! ❤️ also love your viewpoints on minimalism and moving to a new place on your own. It’s so scary, but apparently rewarding.
I appreciate the comment, Nula :)
Wow thank you. I have been feeling imbalanced lately. Well i couldn't put how I felt into the actual words. But now i know that my feelings and actions and values all need to be reevaluated. Thank you
Thank you for sharing your story. I loved hearing it and seeing your growth.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences I felt this on a whole other level.
Thank you so much for reassurance and i think im ready for this next chapter in my life. Keep it up man🙏🏽
Thank you!!! I needed to hear this! I’m moving in 3 weeks on my own to heal myself. Thank you for the blueprint
Love the setup of actually traveling to key locations that made your story. Also love the key about realizing what you ACTUALLY value. Best relocation video I have seen.
Thanks so much Madison!
This video was incredibly helpful. I'll be moving to a new city at the end of the year, and I'm terrified. Your outlook has made sense and is super helpful. Thank you.
Elaina Islas Elaina, thanks for commenting. Sending you good vibes in regards to your move. I’m sure it’ll go smoothly and you’ll be great. Just trust yourself and enjoy the journey! Take care :)
How is it going so far? How do you prevent loneliness ?
@@LLastRose get drunk and talk to people
I know it's an old one, but thank you so much for this! I've had the urge to move to a new city for almost a year now and among all the reasons why not, my soul just says I have to go. It was nice to see one of these that focuses on the emotional part of navigating this kind of journey.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED TO HEAR!!! HOPE UR DOING GOOD MAN! MUCH LOVE
This has been the best video I’ve seen in a while. Thank you ! And best of luck on your current journey
Ricardo, thanks a lot for watching and leaving the kind comment. It's meaningful to me that you took the time to hear a bit about my journey; I hope it was helpful in some way! Take care.
I do needed this. Just moved to Phoenix and you talked everything that I’m going through. I will definitely keep you updated on my progress 👌🏽
how's it been.
Thank you for this. Seattle is also my next step but I’m scared. The urge to get there is getting stronger and stronger and I can’t ignore it any longer.
Love this video! As someone who grew up in Seattle and am now moving around a lot, it's interesting to see you discover my city while I learn from your lessons for the ones I'm in now! :)
dude, underrated video. More people need to see this. So much valuable lessons. THANK YOU so much for doing this. Amazing video. Appreciate your honesty. Bless you.
Glad it was helpful! Feel free to subscribe, if you're not opposed :)
I'll never forget this city...I love you Seattle!
This really resonated with me despite the video being 2 years old. I’m currently going through a breakup that’s forcing me to engage as we lived together. I’m moving to a new city with family, but it still feels as difficult as you had described. I’m realizing the stuff you had realized at the time and thank you for your time and experience.
Thanks for sharing. ♥️ you got this.
Great, inspiring & real! I appreciate your honesty and a lot of things you said made me think even more that my motives for moving to another place are genuine. Helpful video, awesome vocabulary and expressing yourself! All the best to you 🙏😇
I’m a retired Career Counselor. This is an outstanding video! I hope a lot of college seniors and recent graduates view this video and ponder your advice. I wish you continued success along your life’s journey.
Thanks for the motivation and advice. I am born and raised in Tampa, FL and lived in the sunshine state my entire life. Just graduated from UCF in Orlando. Moving to Charlotte, NC next month super nervous but I’m working my dream job so very excited. This will be a difficult transition but I’m optimistic for the future.
Mental health and financial health! Same here, both are a huge priority right now, and Seattle’s the city I’m coming to! Thank you so much for sharing your experience, lots of valuable information here.
Thanks for watching and commenting, Samantha! Good luck :)
Thank you for this video and your personal story. It helps me to clarify some of my struggles after my last move to a new city. Really felt I had to reply on this video. So, again, thanks!
Paul, thanks for taking the time to write this comment. It means a lot to me! Sending you good vibes today.
You're very articulate and self-aware. You would be great in a career related to communications.
It was interesting and helpful to hear your thoughts. Best of luck on your journey :)
Tyler - this is honestly one of the best videos I’ve ever watched on CZcams. You’re incredibly snd deeply thoughtful and paced, and really got me thinking. Thank you for putting out such meaningful and thought-provoking content!
Robert! Thanks for the heartfelt reply. Can I ask you something? How'd you find this video?
I ask because, I have an underlying interest in creating more content, but I have trouble defining the best way for me to help people. People normally find this video via the Search function. How'd you end up here? Your answer might provide some insights into what type of content I should continue to make.
@@tylerjkeenan - glad to help! I believe I found this video via searching with terms around moving to a new city alone conversations! I live in Seattle, so when I noticed your actual location for the video was here, it caught my interest further!
Not sure how helpful this is, but don’t hesitate to let me know if you have any other questions!
-Bob
Thank you for a concise and clear message to viewers like me. Your comments and thoughts are very appreciated, the lessons you mentioned with your challenges and successes are very helpful. To embrace and challenge yourself in current situations, and not be too comfortable makes a whole lot of sense, especially the only thing that does not change is change it self. Many thanks!
Roy, thanks for the thoughtful comment. 🙏🏻
Needed this video I’m so ready to move to a new city where I’m a complete stranger fresh start just by myself meeting new people ! Thanks
Thanks for watching and commenting! You got this. 💪🏻
I'm working on moving to a new city as well, love the video bro. Hope you make more!
AboutMillions Amazing. Best of luck to you! It’ll unfold exactly as it should. Enjoy the journey, trust the process. 👍🏻
Thank you for making this video. So well thought out and personal.
I appreciate you for making this, im turning 20 in april and still live with my mom and shes been telling me its time to move out. And ive said i know and understand and even have money saved up but i want to move states, i dont wanna live in my home town and this video really opened my eyes about that, you know change is necessary especially for ones self, i know that wasnt your exact point but its my take away. So thank you🙏🏽
Thanks for the comment. I’m excited for you! Change comes with challenge, but it’s the price for growth. If you don’t mind, once you move and get settled, come back and let me know how things are going! Best of luck to you. 👍🏻
Awesome video man. You really explain things in a way that’s personal and down to earth.
I like how you gave us actual visuals of the places you were and describing what was going on in that time of your life. This was a cool video.
Thanks so much for watching. It was a cool experience to revisit those locations, especially in my last few weeks in Seattle.
I love how you've tracked your progress. Super reflective.
Thank you very much for this wonderful video! Your experiences has given me insights on things to consider..... both externally when moving to a new city and internally when considering your identity, which defines your priorities
Cheers! Thanks so much for sharing what resonated with you.
Thank you so much for this video. It was very inspiring and the editing was brilliant. Keep doing great work
You are glowing in every way. Wishing you prosperity. Thanks for sharing your perspective
MayaJasun W you’re so kind. Wishing you prosperity. Thank you for watching and commenting. ♥️
This video was so helpful for me today, thank you for sharing. I'm looking to move to the PNW as well!
Excellent video ! Former seattle king county resident just moved away to eastern Washington .Thanks for this important thoughtful presentation.Peace from Bree Jet city woman49 Take care
I love your ability to articulate exactly what you felt and what you went through, it is very comforting and helpful
Thanks so much for watching, Leah!
I plan on moving to another state soon and everything you said spoke to me on a deeper level then just moving I’m tryna grow and everything you said relates to that more then even moving you got a new sub man
Solid lessons/rules to live by and cool to hear about your personal journey and growth in Seattle 👍🏽
Teresa! Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment. I've learned a lot. I'm sure I'll have to re-learn these lessons over and over again. :) It's all about continuing to do our best.
I’ve been feeling lost for a good minute now and I haven’t been able to figure out what it is. Recently had the urge to just get up and go to a new state and start a new life, this video encouraged me to do that. Thanks man!
So extremely relatable! I feel the same and had a push to move. I'm going to just do it in the next few months. Really nervous but excited. Hope things are going well for you!
Both of you, do keep us updated! 🙌 Hope you guys are doing okay!!
This is great work. Very practical advice. Looking forward to your next videos!
I love your authenticity. Live in alignment to your values.
Such an amazing journey and so much valuable wisdom you gained. Thank you for sharing 🙏
Thank you for sharing your experience Tyler. Your video is inspiring
Thanks for commenting, Clement. It means a lot to me!
Your journey is relatable. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks for the video man. Always good to step out of your comfort zone.
Amazing video! Great job giving a clear and nice point of view of all your experience in those times.
Really cool to be able to save all those lessons in video.
Good job!
Appreciate it, Doug! Thanks for the thoughtful comment.
You made valid points in this video, which have caused me to self reflect on needs and interests to align with values and goals.
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for sharing what resonated with you! Appreciate you watching.
All of this reminds me of Maslow's Hierarchy
I'm moving to another city in a couple of weeks and I'm so anxious about it, but this video made me feel so much better.
Thanks for sharing. ♥️ you got this. Trust yourself, trust the process, it’ll all unfold exactly as it should.
9:19 Very true!
I'm from Toronto born and raised and I have always been thinking about moving to Texas one day since I was a kid, I'm now 25 and my life is in a position where that could be possible soon. Today I made my mind up finally and give myself a year to save up and get everything in order and make that move all alone!
Get it done! You'll find a lot of Canadians may give you grief for this goal but you live for yourself. You won't regret the experience but your friends will be stuck on the 401 and running the hamster wheel of life. Best of luck!
Really helpful info on this video Tyler, Thank you!
Thanks really, man! Good luck on your journey!
This is exactly the type of video I've been looking for thank you! I'm trying to make the decision of whether should move to Washington from the east coast for a job.
Very helpful :) I expected pure financial advice and was pleasantly surprised when you went into the more intrapersonal side of things. Definitely can't neglect the way you operate the (metaphorical) car if you want it to go anywhere
My first thought told me to watch this video. Just from seeing this makes me feel more confident to move to Seattle. I am actually coming out to transfer from my current job in New Orleans. Thanks Tyler
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
Usually hate these types of things but this was some real talk which I appreciated.
Nice vid man.
Appreciate it, Will. I know what you mean. 👀
I wish I had watched this video before moving down to the Knoxville area from Detroit. Thank you for posting this, its helpful.
Thanks for watching.
Great video bro i just moved from Memphis to Texas definitely needed to see this👍💯
How are you liking it man, thinking about doing the same from the same city. Is the culture similar?
I’m actually looking at moving to Seattle in January and this really helped. Currently living in the dc area and have been here my whole life.
Thanks for sharing, Randy. Best of luck to you!
Thankyou for this one mate, it was much needed for me ❤️
this video was well put together. I was shocked by the amount of views and subscribers. you deserve wayyyy more
This was so helpful.. You are very self aware. I enjoyed the introspection! Hope you are doing well!
Thank you, AJ!
When you stop growing the universe forces you to. Man I felt that in my core. Thank you for this
Thanks for the comment, Wes. That’s a lesson we all (hopefully) only have to learn once 😂 it can be brutal. Onward!
@@tylerjkeenan I can laugh now but I’ve def cried myself to sleep countless nights learning this lesson 😂 onward and upward! Thanks for inspiring!
Yes, yes, yes!!! Totally seconding prioritizing your mental health! I thought my mental health was a result of my situation, so I moved out to Seattle 5 yrs ago thinking everything would 100% improve. Well, yeah, those five years were a waste, lol, because things never improved! I didn’t start seeking therapy until about 1.5 years ago and it wasn’t until then that I became aware of myself (turns out I had untreated anxiety) and what held me back. I can validate so much of this video cuz I know what’s it’s like to not prioritize yourself first. If I had, I would have had a better experience. That said, moving to a new city to start again “right” this time, God willing. 😁
P.S. I caught that Petit Biscuit in the background. 😊 I hope you got a chance to catch him when he came out to Seattle a year or so ago.
You picked a perfect city for you. Seattle has that kind of vibe and I’m sure you will grow there and be happy as you continue the journey of your life. Keep that hunger of writing alive. Read all kinds of books, different authors, Mailer, Vidal, Hemingway, Vonnegut. Get a wider view point of all styles and concepts. This helps you develop your style of writing. Certainly your life experiences will only enhance your writing. I like what you said about, and I’m paraphrasing, it’s good to be content by having all the comforts but don’t get too comfortable to where you loose your edge. David Bowie once said, “Never play to the gallery. It’s terribly dangerous for an artist to fulfill other people’s expectations because you generally produce your worst work by doing that. If you feel safe in the area you’re working in, you’re not in the right area. Always go a little further into the water, go a little be out of your depth. When you don’t feel like your feet are quite touching the bottom, you’re just about in the right place to do something exciting.” Take care brother!
Love this, thanks for the comment, Night Owl!
Wow that’s some solid advice from David Bowie
You must be drinking the Kool-Aid. Seattle is a fake city full of fake people. Cold, selfish, passive aggressive.
I am living in Nevada and I’m moving to Seattle area in 4 days alone and this helped me so much, thank you for making amazing content!
Thanks for watching and commenting, Elise!
Elisa, how are things going in Seattle so far? Sending you good vibes.
I moved from the Midwest to California when I was 19, all by myself. It was to play soccer in college, but man was that an adventure. Now, I’m back home, finishing my degree online, and hoping to make it back out there. I have a job offer lined up out there but they want me to start too soon, so hopefully they will be flexible
This is amazing! And totally inspirational! I'm so happy for you and I hope you keep growing.
Thanks so much for watching and the kind comment!
I'm so happy I found and listened to this video. You have a great insightful perspective!
I'm also looking to move to the seattle area (and coincidentally enough I've also stayed at that hostel)😄
Definitely resonated with this video, makes me feel more optimistic.
You got this!
This is such a valuable video. I love getting secondhand life lessons and I hope life is treating you well
Thanks so much for the kind comment. :) I'm great! Living in Austin, TX now. Hope you're doing amazing.
Thank you for this video, it's very comforting. About to take the leap as well. Moving to the east coast of Canada alone.
How'd it go? :) Best wishes.
So glad you made this video !
This is dope! I’m 52 made a move to another state…. 1st time with roommates. I’m still trying to get used to this… I’m a introvert myself and I value my space ,quietness, peace… exploring this beautiful state of Rhode Island.
I'm glad you posted this, especially from the perspective of an introvert. I myself have had too many bad things happen to me where I live (2 women in a row treating me bad is one example) and I feel caged up where I'm living now, so I'm looking to break out if this cage and move from England to Northern Ireland, tho it'll be next year once coronavirus has settled down. I just feel like sometimes you have to grab the bull by the horns, I can either stay here and be miserable or move across the country and give it try
@مواء thanks, I appreciate that
You might like the book Necessary Endings. I'm moving from Toronto (cold women) to Florida (warm women). Really got me in the right frame of mind
Very helpful and insightful, thanks for putting this together.
Lovely video, many thanks for sharing it. It's quite inspirational. I recently relocated from Kerala to the UK. This is a major source of inspiration for me. Thank you so much once more.
Thanks for watching and for the kind comment.
You really helped me dude. Thank you 💯
Damn dude this was an unexpectedly good video. I can tell you’re a writer. Awesome format, going through apartment by apartment, with each lesson learned there. You do seem a little uptight and not relaxed but that sorta adds to the honesty of the video. It’s cool to see perspective from someone who’s an adult introvert and not a rich, famous, beautiful CZcamsr. Some of the lessons you talked about like realizing your TRUE priorities vs what you think you wanted are really hitting home. I think you’d have an audience if you made regular content.
Amazing video, I am in love!!! This is exactly what I neeed to see. Thank you !!!
After 9 years working as an enineer in Germany, I realised this is not serving my needs anymore, as you said it nicely...Or it is just "midlife crises" since I am 40.
My biggest concern is however, how in the world am I going to tell to my parents that
I quit my job, am moving in October to Italy, and in the summer I want to work as a cook on the ship. This is a big challenge for me since I can cook 3 meals, but I am ready for it!!!
I hear their voices in my head, which I internailzed "why now? why you want to travel, learn a new language, ...I hear my excuses "but situation is never good, there is allways some crisis" but excuses for what???.
I moved from Croatia to Germany before 12 years. Learning new language, culture, puting into question what you thought is "normal" is just priceless and hard in the moments not to forget.
now I want to move to Italy, to live by the sea, just to prove to myself that I can get depressed anywhere... In two weeks will be back home to Croatia, to spend 3 weeks summer holidays with family, I see it as family retreat...All those questions: when are you going to get married, what is with kids, are you buying a property, a house, where is a man, and so on..
But at the end I know if I survive family holidays I can do anything :)
Thank you from my heart for uploading this video
Bome zanimljivo,javi kako je prošlo! XD
I just got into a music academy in Norway, and I’ve lived in Cali my whole life so at 18 now I’ll be moving to a completely different country, new language, new people, new school
