Last year, I actually wanted to travel for an extended period. I gave notice on my apartment and sold my furniture. When the trip had to be canceled, I found myself without a place to stay. Some of my friends, as well as people I had only known for a short time, offered to help me.
I started to stay with them. I was warmly welcomed on a few sofas and mattresses that had been "makeshift" in the living room. During this time, I was very grateful for these people and felt very much at home. This led to friendships, or rather, to a different level.
I can truly rely on these people, and the time we shared together is unforgettable and incredibly formative.
