  • After putting a lot of pressure on myself to figure out what I want to do career wise I decided to take a break from worrying about the future for a second and spontaneously bought a one-way ticket to Morocco. During this trip I realised I am not alone in this and that it's okay to feel lost - and it's okay to take your time figuring out your life ☀️

    The biggest mistake we often make is forcing ourselves to figure out what we want to do, so the best solution is to go somewhere where it's easier to be. I've left my career as a professional real estate agent 2 years ago, and I'm also still figuring it out, take away the pressure, it'll become more effortless eventually.
    Be proud of yourself for making a decision like this. I've come to learn that the best thing we can do when we feel a bit doubtful about where we are and where we want to go, is to travel and step outside of our "comfort bubble." That's why I booked a one-way ticket to Nepal ;)
    Staying in the known keeps us where we are, stepping into the unknown takes us where we're meant to be.

    did they give you any issues with booking just a one way flight to morocco?

    • @iris-tabea
      @iris-tabea  6 месяцев назад +1

      I usually always buy an inexpensive bus ticket to another country online before my flight that I don't end up using. There are also websites that provide you with onward flight tickets for 20$ or so, they get cancelled once you are past immigration, so they are literally just here to give you proof of return. I've only used them twice but it worked both times, I can't remember the name of the website I bought them from but if you google 'proof of return onward ticket' you will find a couple of them :)
      Funny story, when I flew to Morocco I actually completely forgot to make sure I have a return ticket or bus ticket to show and I only realised once I was already in line for immigration at Marrakech airport with no internet 🙈 I heard them ask the guy next to me for his return flight but luckily they did not ask me 🤞🏼😅
