You may find you have skills you never knew you had

 

...Lots of skills you didn't know you had

 

You will eat some of the most incredible food, but never be able to re-create it

 

You will also probably eat some less-than-incredible food, and never want to recreate it

 

 

You will realise there is a whole new level of exhaustion. Both physically...

 

…and mentally

 

You care less about the labels on your clothes, but care more about who made them and under what conditions

 

In fact, you will probably care less about your personal appearance entirely and care less about what people think of it

 

What you do, opposed to what you earn, may become more important

 

You may become a very adept motorcyclist, and even develop a life-long interest

 

...and you may reconsider just what a motorbike can be used for

 

You will start up conversations on public transport

 

Going to bed and getting up with the sun seems very logical

 

...especially when you wake up to views like this:

 

You will make life-long friends, who live on the other side of the world, but you may still be able to meet up now and then

 

Your home may not feel like ‘home’ any longer

 

...and you will spend a lot of your time convincing others to volunteer
