Day 1 Back in the Cook Islands

​











​It's like God had planned it.
There it was --
This book

Pretty sure this was the author that was mentioned in the book I just finished.
So I looked him up online.

This is bound to be good.
​
I searched on his writing, and browsed passages after passages.
He is wise, succinct, yet impactful
More than that,
Every one of the lines in this very book
Coincides with everything I have felt about traveling and wanting to travel.

This book is like it was waiting for me to find it here , in this very hut by the sea that is my own, today...
Everything it talks about - what Arcadia means -
is exactly what I've felt about my travel.
It's like nothing could get me better now.

As I read the parts about Arcadia,
It resounded so strongly within me that
I realised:
Coming back to the 🇨🇰 now is exactly that.
The 🇨🇰 is My Arcadia...
​
​Had I not come here then,
I'd have gone down a different path.
Because of my encounter here,
for none else but by fate,
My life had changed for the better.
I grew so much since then.
For that I'm forever thankful.
For being able to come back here sooner than i expected myself to, I am grateful.
​
So here I am...
Back at the beginning
🇨🇰 My Arcadia, my Home.
