Friday night. Currently sitting in a cafe alone, writing and having dinner. I just needed to be alone for awhile to recharge. I’m not used to being around so many people all the time. I think I usually spend 90% of my time alone, so it’s quite a change to...Read More

Friday. Woke up an hour before school starts for the day. Had a weird night last night. Just gotta write it off so I can focus on memorizing the Sun salutations in Sanskrit. As per usual, my mysterious Scorpion allure attracted the attention of the only guy in class. I...Read More

Thursday. Trying to go to bed a little bit later so I don’t wake up so early. The days are long and challenging, but so far it’s been worth it. Had some emotional stuff come out yesterday, but I managed to work through it with an afternoon trip to the...Read More

Wednesday. Early morning. I keep waking up in the middle of the night and can’t go back to sleep even though I’m tired. Hopefully I will start to adjust more to the time soon. Second day of school was challenging. I am definitely getting out of my comfort zone. It’s...Read More

Tuesday. 5:30am. Woke up at 2:30am after passing out at about 8pm. Still not on the sleep schedule I want, but I’m getting there. First day of class was good. I felt the expectations I had coming into this were pretty realistic. I signed up for spiritual bootcamp and that’s...Read More

It’s 5:30am right now in Goa. Finally slept through the night. I got a converter and finally started charging my dead electronics right as the power went out. Apparently it happens quite frequently. No worries. I ended up falling asleep at about 8pm and sleeping through the night. Haven’t managed...Read More

Hello world! I have made it to Goa, India! It's about 4:15am local time. Needless to say, I am wide awake. That's why I'm writing to you all to say... Toto, we are definitely not in Kansas anymore! My flight went okay. I watched a cute little Bollywood romcom about...Read More

Posted on May 10, 2024May 10, 2024 by Betsey Horton

Friday. Last day in Doha. I get the very strong feeling it won't be the last time I'm here. I haven't explored as much as I wanted to due to the jet-lag. Thinking I might fly back the way I came and do another stopover here so I can actually...Read More
