When moving home means falling in love with this city all over again 💌
There’s something really special about settling back into the place you were born and seeing it with fresh eyes. Maybe I’m appreciating the little things I once took for granted, or maybe living away for so long has given me a whole new perspective on the place I’ve always called home. Either way, I’m absolutely adoring what I see.
After 4 years of calling Sydney home, being back in Dublin feels like getting to know an old friend all over again. The cosy cafés, the autumn leaves, the familiar streets, the little corners of the city I’ve walked past a hundred times but never really stopped to appreciate.
It’s funny how being away can make you see home differently. I spent so long exploring the world and falling in love with places far from here, and now I get to experience that same feeling in the city I was born in.
I’m still finding my feet, figuring out this new chapter and settling into a version of life that feels both familiar and completely new. But if there’s one thing I’m learning, it’s that sometimes you don’t need to go somewhere new to find something beautiful. Sometimes you just need to look at what’s already there a little differently.
