Welcome back, dear listeners, to another chapter of "My Very Inconsistent Travel Diary," where the only constant is change and my candid thoughts. This is Evita, your nomadic confidante, and you're tuning into Episode 8: "Exhausted & Not Knowing Where to Go."

Last time, we delved deep into my spiritual explorations, and I was overwhelmed by your heartfelt responses. But the journey isn't just about the highs—we must navigate the valleys, too. In the shadow of a successful website launch, instead of riding a wave of euphoria, I found myself utterly depleted and questioning my next steps.

A weekend with my nieces reminded me of life’s simple joys, yet underscored my exhaustion. This week, I grappled with the inertia of contentment and the anxiety of directionless longing. Forced to confront my usual thirst for adventure, I decided to extend my stay at my sister's here in Perth, giving myself the grace to just be.

I'll take you through the rollercoaster of torrential rain and soothing beach visits. We're not setting sail for the horizon just yet, but perhaps the universe has a plan it's yet to reveal. As I sit back and let life's rhythm dictate my pace, join me in reflecting on the beauty of stillness amidst the chaos of travel.

Stay with me, for the only thing predictable about my diary is its unpredictability.
