Nomad Soul Quotes

“I’ve ruined myself for a normal life. I know that now. And I didn't do it with drugs, or a scandalous affair, but I’ve ruined myself the old-fashioned way: I packed my bags, left the house, got on a plane, and flew across an ocean.”

“But real travel—It makes you a permanent exile. You are too changed to fit back into the mold of your old life, but you are too inherently foreign to ever truly belong to the places you visit. You become a ghost, haunting airports and hotel bars, perpetually looking for that next hit of pure, unfiltered reality.”

“When you travel, You fall in love in fast-forward. Because you know there is an expiration date. You know one of you has a flight on Tuesday. It’s not romance. Don't kid yourself. It’s a desperation. You’re alone in a city that doesn't speak your language. You find someone else who looks just as lost as you. You hold onto each other. You squeeze a lifetime into a weekend. You swear it means something. Then the train comes. The bus leaves. And you’re just left with a phone number you’ll never call and a spot in the bed that gets cold real fast. It’s a cheap trick. But we fall for it every time.”
