While traveling like I do there are certain things you learn to expect. After six months on the go here are a few of the things I have come to live with:
Chronic foot pain is a rite of passage - get used to it and you start to forget about it.
Any given time every item of clothes you're wearing are clean is a treat.
Losing things from your bag becomes more freeing than painful.
One good night's sleep can carry you for several days - take them as they come.
Earplugs are invaluable - especially in crouded hostels or with strange sleep habits of any other person in the room (just ask Olivia :)
As tired as you get of traveling you miss it immediately as soon as you get on the plane to head home
