🌟 Wrapping It All Up with a Hug from Afar
Travel isn’t just about planes and pictures. It’s about leaving behind a little of yourself and pickin’ up pieces of the world. When you send someone off, you’re giving them permission to grow, stumble, glow up, and then come back with their heart full and pockets probably full of receipts.
So don’t just say “Have a nice trip.” Say “Live your story out loud, and come back with postcards for my soul.” Because a journey isn’t complete without someone waitin’ on the other end, arms wide, heart full, ready to hear it all.
