Hi There! What's your favorite quote or one you try to live by?
This one is my favorite. I collected it while traveling in Italy by myself. A man sat next to me and we started talking. Here's what he said:
"When I was your age, I traveled by myself like you too. I gave up everything I knew back at home and ran away to Paris. I had no clue what I'd do there, but I knew it was where I had to go. Lots of people would always ask me if I was lonely, and I always said no. They were astonished that for months, with no friends, I wouldn't feel 'lonely.' I started to feel as though maybe I should be lonely."
"Then I ran into someone and they asked me, 'Alone or lonely? Those are two very different things. Often times, people mistake them for one another. Which one are you?'"
