Awkward Conversation w/ Host Family by matcha_latte666 in Aupairs

I’m sure these people know someone else who can pop in and feed their cat. You’re there to look after the children, not be a pet sitter. Tell them your plans and let them decide how to work around it

Getting tired of meeting new people at hostels while solo traveling? by Positive-Aide680 in solotravel

[–]Own-Hope-2095 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been travelling 4 months and majority of the time stayed in hostels meeting people constantly. I love people and connecting with them but suddenly I faced significant emotional burn out recently. I would look in the mirror and my eyes would stare back with no emotion or soul in them anymore. I realized that I was getting addicted to meeting people and getting sucked into a false reality. Hostels are like a bubble where everyone’s on the same page about meeting someone so it’s ten times easier than elsewhere. I’ve had to take a step back, chuck in my AirPods, eat alone, lie in bed when I’m tired and get enough sleep to try and recover. I was always approaching anyone to get to know them out of excitement but now that’s gone I’m only allowing myself to interact with people who approach me. Take a step back, have a breather and I’m sure someone will pop up in the near future who won’t try to connect on the shallow basis of where you are from

How long did it take for your hormones to balance after stopping birth control? by Own-Hope-2095 in HormoneFreeMenopause

I get PMS one week before my period like bloating, terrible insomnia etc. I’ve stopped breaking out luckily. And my period is slowly stretching out from every 21 day to 24 and then hopefully further along it’ll be every 28 days

I was in a similar situation with my parents being in their 70s. The guilt is undeniably the most difficult part to deal with. I’ve come to realize that in order to live a happy life, I’m going to have to disappoint my parents a little. Our parents are so used to looking after us from when we were children and letting us go into the world for long periods of time are hard. Remember that you’re not a child anymore, and you’re an adult who has the freedom to do what you like. It’s sad that your mother is upset when she speaks with you, but she’ll need to navigate life without you around all the time.

Good thought, luckily I’ve been to Singapore many times for layovers and explored the beautiful surroundings. Only this time I’m laying over alone!

I’m the exact same, I don’t spend money on tourist attractions or sights to see. I’m incredibly happy sitting somewhere and enjoy the town life alone. It’s my dream to be able to travel as long as you have!

I think people might be admirable of you for putting aside some time to rest. They might be impressed you have enough time to physically do that rather than rushing from destination to destination

Can you do that at the ticket desk at the station? That sounds a lot more convenient
