One more day of laziness. As I was leaving the hostel for the lagoon I met Jack on the stairs and he asked what I was up to and decided to join me at the lagoon. It was pretty nice to have some company particularly someone who properly converses with you. I’m a talker so we got on well and it was a nice day. The evening proceeded again with more goon room fun resulting in a a drunken bike ride around cairns.

While at lagoon with Jack we joked about those travellers you meet who say they’re ‘changed’ and they’ve ‘found themselves’ which in my mind is a load of BS but it did get me thinking. I don’t feel like I’ve found myself here and it’s not the place that’s don’t it to me but I do feel like I’ve suddenly hit that age where I know who I am. I was always told that you spend your teen years forming your character for who you’re going to be for the rest of you’re life. I feel like I’ve found out who I’m going to be for the rest of my life and I’ve been through the struggle but this is it. I’ve tried to conform to a whole load of stuff and it never made me happy. Like I said it’s not Cairns or travelling that’s done it to me but its definitely opened my eyes to help me realise it.
