What The Nomad Life is Teaching Me
As I am typing to you from Syros, Greece, I wanted to share this life-changing experience with all of you. Our trip wasn't just about sightseeing; it was a conscious choice to embrace the concept of slow travel and reset our perspective on what truly matters.
Imagine waking up every morning with the Aegean Sea as your backdrop, buying fresh produce, fish, and meat directly from local markets, and savoring the flavors of a simpler life.
Each day, we walk to and from school, soaking in the vibrant culture and connecting with the community around us. One of the highlights was working out with new friends, surrounded by the awe-inspiring beauty of the Mediterranean.
This journey is filling me with an immense curiosity about what else is possible in life. It's been a reminder that we can prioritize our well-being and find joy in the everyday moments.
I had a very interesting observation as I was preparing to lead a workout for our group. We had just dropped the kids off at school and I noticed this internal clock that was telling me to hurry up and get the class started. And, then I realized that I am hours ahead of the U.S. and I did not actually have anywhere to be for the next 7 hours.
This realization was a huge wake up in the hustle routine that many of us find ourselves in. So, I started asking myself some questions. What has to get done today? Who do I have to communicate with today? What do I need today?
Sometimes it is so easy to be so set in our culture that stepping away for a longer period of time is truly necessary to reevaluate. By immersing ourselves in a different environment, we gain a fresh perspective on our lives and can identify what truly brings us happiness and fulfillment. It's in these moments of pause that we find clarity and purpose, reminding ourselves to prioritize what genuinely matters.
Stepping outside our routine allows us to shed the unnecessary stress and rediscover the joy of living more intentionally. This experience in Syros has reaffirmed the importance of slowing down, embracing new opportunities, and cherishing the small, everyday moments that make life extraordinary.
Sending you all of our love from Greece!!!!
