I have a similar story, although not quite as progressed.

Forty years ago I lived in Australia. I always dreamed of going back.

Now, I am in the middle of writing my travel memoir for that time. I have always wanted to put it into words to share the experience.

But the interesting thing is that in January, I am making that return visit I have always dreamed of.

Perhaps another memoir or maybe a fiction book about that trip? Who knows.

The point being, if not for our dreams, what else keeps us going?

I love that you're finally going back there. My first thought was, what if you included your January adventures in the memoir as you retrace and relive what happened 40 years ago?! I bet there will be some incredible revelations ❤️

That's a possibility. Right now I'm just hoping to finish writing about the initial trip before I leave.

The pressure is on.

The power of a compelling vision in action. Wow! I remember John Assaraf having a similar experience in the movie The Secret. I loved reading all about your love affair with Paris. So inspiring! 🗼❤️🥰
