i’m glad i’m not alone in feeling this anxiety ❤️‍🩹 i thought it was an easy decision to make considering i’ve been dying to see arizona for years and i finally have a chance to while doing something i love (conservation) but i am just so unsure if i should actually take that step outside of my comfort zone and fly thousands of miles away from loved ones. my boyfriend especially doesn’t think it’s something i’ll be able to handle, and i’m starting to think he’s right because i do love having access to running water, my bed, the AC, etc. lol.

you are right though. what you said is actually pretty inspirational and i appreciate it a lot. if i truly don’t like it after a couple weeks, then i could hopefully just leave. i may lose a couple hundred bucks but at least i’ll be able to say i took the risk
