Sunshine Revival challenge #2

I think because I've been traveling a lot lately, with more travels still to come this summer, I'm thinking about how much I love coming home after being away, even for a short time. Sometimes coming home is the best part of going out! I just love the comfort and coziness and cleanliness of our space, and settling into familiar routines and rituals again after having them disrupted for a time (even if the disruption was pleasant). And I love being here with my partner T., even if we're just in our separate spaces doing our own things. I love that our home is a place where I can truly let my hair down, and I love that I share it with a person with whom I can truly just *be.*

I definitely agree! I enjoy going to new places but coming home is always a welcome sight.

I used to feel really sad at the end of whatever travel, but now I always look forward to coming back home. Like you, I enjoy the comfort of my own space and every time I travel I come back to my routine feeling more energised and enthusiastic about it. And being able to come back to someone that makes that space even more of a safe space is beautiful.

I just got back from some time away from home myself, and that is so true! Even if a place is fun to visit, home is wonderful to come back to.
