Oh Phoebe I totally understand you…TOTALLY!!! I traveled internationally for the first time by myself last year and it was to Paris. I was with nerves and nauseous. All I was doing was praying that I get there safely. Once I got to Paris with all the jet lag, hunger, and just exhaustion, I remember getting to the Eiffel Tower the first day and was in tears. The fact that I made it and did it all on my own. So I totally get your emotions..it’s happy tears. So I’m really really happy for you.

That was me too - just praying I get there safely and then totally overwhelmed with emotion :) Funnily enough, when I was sitting on the roof of the hotel looking at the view I saw another two women walk up and do the same thing... they got out on the balcony, saw the Eiffel Tower and just started crying. It was so sweet.

I like how you make yourself so vulnerable by opening up to your viewers. We are emotional creatures , both men and woman. It's okay to feel the way you do at this moment in time. Life has it's ups and downs in life, and we get to control our happiness and make each situation the best we can. Keep on moving forward and be content to feel the way you feel on any given day.

Phoebe... I completely get you girl. I went through a low period same as you where I didn't see any light but I had a moment were I realized that my rebuild was better than anything I could have imagined. Also I understand that feeling of having to pinch yourself because that was me on a snorkeling tour in Maui surrounded by the ocean, sea life, and the most beautiful scenery in the world. Just saying keep on sparkling.

I LOVE that... 'rebuild,' YES! I'm definitely in the rebuild phase right now... you kinda get reduced to rubble and then have to start putting things back together one brick at a time, working out how it all fits :) It's a process, that's for sure but I'm really starting to find myself.

It would seem so strange to travel somewhere on your own when you are used to being with someone. You are amazing for facing your fears and doing it anyway. Great video as always! Xx

This whole trip is about building my confidence and I’m slowly getting there! Ups and downs. Good days and bad. Challenges and easy moments. It’s all working together for the greater good, that’s for sure 🥰

Been to Paris 3 to 4 times (don't remember) but still extremely nice to see everything in your video again. Can't wait to go back. An amazing capture of Paris.

“No matter how hard life gets, it can get better. You can get better.” Those are very wise words, Phoebe. And just look-it did get better. You have gotten better. The world is a beautiful place, as you know better than most from your travels. It’s also sometimes scary and, well, not so beautiful, let’s say. But those places and moments make you appreciate the beautiful ones. Same for life. Life is truly beautiful. It’s also hard and painful at times. But then you get that moment of validation and joy like you did in a hotel room in Paris. That wasn’t just a perfect view of Paris you saw. I think you also saw a moment in your heart. A realization that you can do this! You can overcome your fears. You can meet your challenges. You can live your life as you want. You can live your life for you. Your life is yours again. The past is behind you and the future ahead is bright! You earned those tears of joy! You life is not just going to be "okay" now, it’s going to be beautiful. Funny how we think our journeys are unique, only to discover the themes and events are kinda the same for us all. Your video brought that home to me. For me, my checkpoint place is Key West. I was 19 and my heart was hurting when first I went there and, just like you with Paris, it’s where I still go to know everything is going to be okay. in fact, life is going to be as beautiful as the sunset. Thought I was alone in this, but, nope, we all have it. Thank you for sharing your "checkpoint place" with us. Be brave, Phoebe. Go explore new places, both in the world in your heart. We think you're gonna find beauty beyond your imagination. We can’t wait to see where you go. Rob&Erin

Paris does that for me too. I was at a lost point of my life, and I wrote out this list of things I wanted in life. Lots of good shoes LOL, finish my studies, and to Go to Paris were on the top of that goal setting list. At the time, it seemed impossible. About a year later, my aunt without knowing any of this, while I did actually finish school, offered for our family to go to Paris. For $300 each. (she worked in hospitality). So my dream came true. I think at this point I've been to paris 5 times, and I go back next week! Manifestation works! And yes, I have about 200 pairs of shoes too :).

I wish I had the courage to go on my own to Paris! Cheers to you!

I stumbled upon your vlog and I’m truly amazed by how much I can connect with your journey. Let me set the scene: I’m from the Philippines, 30 y.o and just last April, I embarked on a solo adventure across Europe. If you’re also from a developing country with a less powerful passport, you’ll get why I’m starting with this detail. First stop, Amsterdam-always at the top of my list. Then came Paris. The emotions I felt on the train from Amsterdam to Paris mirrored what you shared. It’s a mix of excitement and fear, especially with all those stories about pickpockets and scammers. Stepping off the train, anxiety gripped me, even though my hostel was less than 2 kilometers away. I opted for an Uber, just to be safe. The driver’s kindness eased my nerves instantly. The hostel receptionist was genuinely warm too. Upon reaching my room, an overwhelming wave of gratitude swept over me. I had to pause and absorb everything in that moment. I lingered by the window, gazing at the Parisian view. It’s an experience etched in my memory forever. I’m convinced-you hold the reins of your own life. ❤
