New Life in Albania & Beyond

There's a version of my life where I stayed, worked the three jobs, and never saw the Land of the Eagles. I don't live in that one anymore. In 2024 I packed up my teenage son and moved to Albania.

He's grown now. The nest emptied faster than I was ready for, and then my body handed me a health scare I never saw coming. I've stopped calling it bad timing. I think it was an invitation. This chapter is mine, and I'm spending it on my own healing, which looks a lot like one woman, a bag, and a map with no pins in it. I'm traveling solo now, half looking for something I can't name, half curious what's around the next bend.

You'll still get the authentic version. What things actually cost, what goes well and what doesn't. If you've wondered whether it's too late to start over, pull up a chair.
