Julia

Julia

 My flat still looks like that of a student's even though I'm 27. I've always lived in a rented flat, still got a pay as you go mobile, don't buy furniture, all so that I wouldn't feel like I have loans, contracts or materials that binds me to a place.

 What people wouldn't know is that I'm constantly on the move in my mind, looking out of the window wanting to be somewhere else. Restless perhaps but more accurately not willing to have anything or do anything that will root me, or to keep me back. After many years of living abroad I have reconnected with my family, a family I kept at an arms length since I moved away when I was 18.

 After many years of living abroad I have reconnected with my family, a family I kept at an arms length since I moved away when I was 18. I thought that a close relationship with them would hinder me from travelling, living abroad, be ready to take my things and leave if an opportunity would arise. I reckon that's the same reason I keep a distance to very much in life. Strange that, the idea that distancing yourself from people would enable you to live freeer and fuller.

What I know about Julia,
 Her flat says alot more about herself than she thinks it does
she has no interest in what her interior looks like it is
just somewhere to sleep, her flat was just the same in London
she has never experienced joy in makin it look nice as has
always seen her abode as temporary. She is a true nomad.
It doesn't show how creative she is other than the typewriter
she spends a lot o time at home thinking and writing which is
why it is suprising that she puts no worth in the idea of home.
