Good morning from the Canary Islands!
I’m writing this post from a small cafe on the island of Fuerteventura, and it feels amazing to be travelling outside the UK for the first time in almost 18 months.
I’ve been particularly cautious with COVID precautions since the start of the pandemic, but the risk / reward ratio recently swung in favour of getting some sun and salt water.
Many of us have come to the realisation there will be no “normalisation” moment where, all of a sudden, life goes back to how it was.
And if there is no definitive moment, then it’s up to each of us to look at our situation and decide when, where, and how we’re willing to take a risk.
I’m taking a moment today to pause, acknowledge, and appreciate the ability to travel again. I don’t take it lightly.
