First thing this morning I had to run to the post office to pick up a package for a friend. It was an absolute nightmare and couldn’t get it for him which was a long trek but I gave it my best go. Then I grabbed a quick breakfast and ran off to catch my ferry back to gili.

Once I got in, I dropped my stuff at the bungalow and headed off to the hostel to see if I could find any of my old friends. They were all out so I headed to the beach to grab some food and a beer. I just sat and reflected on what a lovely experience I am about to have working at this hostel for the next few weeks. I joined in for family dinner, played some drinking games, and saw some humans I didn’t know if I’d ever see again. It all felt natural to get back into it.
