it’s 3 am and i'm scrolling through travel blogs, dreaming about places i'll never see. my friends think my Instagram is all sun-soaked beaches and quaint cafes, but that’s just filters masking the fact that my biggest trip this year was a bus ride to the next town. they have no idea i have more unpaid bills than passport stamps, and the only thing getting a workout is my credit card. truth is, ev...
