Do you ever start anew? No

I left Kenya 11 weeks ago, stayed "in transit" with my dad and sister in France until today, when I'm arriving at the destination I picked to learn more about another dimension of who I am, Sweden.

I am full of excitement, joy, curiosity, fear and love. I get to start anew in a city I don't know, a country I've never lived in, a culture I've only gotten glimpses of and a career I'm recreating.

Am I really starting anew though? No. I have lived 35 years filled with wonderful, painful and joyful experiences.

Today, I keep building upon all that I already am.
