The places we inhabit form the backdrop of our personal histories, shaping how we see the world and ourselves. My life, marked by constant movement from an early age, has been molded by each place I’ve called home. These spaces have left lasting imprints, shaping my values, behaviors, and perspective. Their familiarity offers a quiet stability amid change.

In my search for belonging, I’ve been drawn to form emotional ties—planting new roots in physical spaces and the relationships I build. I’ve come to see belonging as fluid: shaped more by the journey than any place.

While I can never truly know what the future holds, I have learned to carry with me the places that have shaped me. Each leaves its mark, and together, they offer a quiet assurance as I move forward, ready to meet what’s next.
