Anyhow ..

Have any of you found a place, when visiting or have traveled to, where you just feel really calm, inner peace, some place that you feel is possibly your calling to go back to or relocate to —

I am pretty sure that I have and finally trying to finish some things up and go there. I was born and raised here in Central Michigan and can say that I'm beyond sick of it here... I really have a deep hatred for our winters.

Hmm... this is an interesting question for me so I suppose I will answer. How ironic is it that no "place" calls to me as a home. I haven't found a place where I want to fully and forever reside in.

I feel most calm, at peace, when I am on the open road traveling itself. I feel free. There are no thoughts, no confinements, just peace. Full peace and an inner calmness that no one place holds for me. I want to live in multiple places. I already have 4 locations in mind, but I don't foresee myself staying there permanently. I know exactly the feeling you describe here, and I feel it when I am driving with no certain destination, just going. When I am especially stressed, this is what I do. I drive. It is the most freeing thing for me. I feel most calm, free and "at home" when I am moving. Nothing to me is as beautiful as the open road.

However, the ugliest thing is being stuck in a traffic jam LOL. so I suppose it depends on timing.

The home where I grew up isn't a place where I would want to reside. I cannot wait to leave and rid myself of it completely. To me it is a box. People grow up here, they live here, they have families here, they die here. I refuse to be one of them.

Very interesting indeed...!!

I feel quite the same way, hence the reason why I am pursuing a driving job that will keep me in the Western region of the U.S.

For me ..

I really like it out in Arizona, huge wide open sun filled skies, the sun sets, the huge starry skied nights.
I really love the Grand Canyon, truly amazing.
It gets quite how here, fyi

But it's beautiful

I've been out there at 105°... I know it gets hotter though.

I've done some hiking in the Superstition Mountains...
Hiked to the top of Flat Iron, what a beautiful place to sit back and observe from

I hate crowded places , clubbing holidays , drunk people ... I like calm and quiet peaceful preferably no people.

I was in my sanctuary when I'm in the Balkans the mountain region the accursed mountains , the most beautiful place on earth

I sat in those mountains like Jesus on his 40 days except their was no temptation no noise no nothing

I felt like my true self for the first time in many many years

Thank fcuk I have a house there I'm retiring there

LOL
