Vienna - not home, nor destination

One year ago I assumed a journey around the world - doesn't matter how many coupons or destinations you include - ends with its last flight back to the original port of departure. In my particular case: from New York to Vienna.

Back in Vienna I do have a problem with that. Not only that I just fell in love with NYC - a place where I could imagine to work and live for some time without hesitation - but more important, as a contextual feeling: Upon arrival I felt displaced!

And believe me, that has nothing to do with Vienna - neither with the warm welcome at my family's place, nor with the location itself: Vienna is a great city to explore as well as for living. So I had to ask myself: "What is wrong? Even the sun is shining!"

There is something unique that comes along with a trip around the world that differs from any other kind of travelling, be it on business or vacation. YOU MOVE ON! Literally, there's no return ticket. Although your body and mind takes some time to adapt, there is a point where you feel the journey may continue without a plan - and hence - contradicting its defined end. 

Is there a way out of this Catch 22 situation? Yes! What did I have in mind when I decided to buy a ticket around the world? Wasn't it about mobility and change? Wasn't it about to move on? Indeed, the journey is the reward! Any side effects? My story continues ....
