Love in a foreign land far from home
Page 1 of 2
How many stories haven't we heard of people falling in love with someone from a distant land? Many people don't seem to find their true love in their country, years of searching lead to an empty heart because their true love is somewhere else, miles from their homeland.
A love that perhaps they will find one day by chance of a foreigner visiting or by taking a trip out to a distant land.
The reality is that it is very likely that you will meet many people while traveling, especially if you are doing it off the beaten path and taking the time to explore a foreign land and its people and culture. Once you meet someone you can achieve a deep connection with them, by exploring their world which is a new world to you entirely and it can be friendship or why not? You might even find your soulmate on the other side of the world. That is what happened to me, while exploring a foreign land, I connected with someone special. He was unique in a way that I had never felt for someone back home. A true connection occurred between us and we fell in love with each other.
Once you leave your comfort zone back home, you will feel more encouraged and open to making new friends and acquaintances. You feel more liberated to explore new activities you had never imagined, live new adventures, and even meet new people who might become friends, lovers, and even future husbands or wives.
At home, you feel like you compete with the same people over and over trying to find someone special that will bring meaning to your life. When you are in a foreign place, you feel different about yourself. Many times I felt more attractive, and sexy, especially the way I got treated. Perhaps it's part of being foreign that they see you differently and your nationality gives you a boost of sexiness.
Sometimes you feel insecure, especially when arriving at a new destination, while traveling you get a sense of easing and eventually find your rhythm. Sort of like you are going through unparalleled experiences that you can never forget. As you are so far from home, and outside your environment and everyday life what was a routine, it is normal that your whole being is alert and taking in everything you see and notice. Your senses are sharpened and therefore, the sensations intensify with a simple greeting from a stranger.
