3 years ago today Matt and I were exploring the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. We spent 19 hours on the ground backpacking through Istanbul en route to South Africa. At the end of our 19hrs, I looked at Matt and said “This was the best day of my life.” Before that moment I had never felt or experienced anything powerful enough to make me say those words- - It wasn’t just the experience of being in another country, or the incredible city itself, or the rollercoaster of emotions I felt throughout those 19hrs exploring it; It was also the feeling of doing it with someone I knew I loved (though I hadn’t told him yet)..I knew then, what I know now - that all of my “best days of my life” would be with you , and so far I’ve been correct.
