Some people prefer the quiet, more tranquil pace of the country, or suburbs, but maybe because I grew up in a city, I actually really like the bustle of activity and the seemingly frantic pace of life.

I did my university studies in Newcastle, and compared to the more metropolitan urban centres, it is a lot more laid back. I loved the time I spent there, and I also found love there, but there is something in me that will always make me love the urban chaos too.

There will come a time when I have to leave the comforts of the urbanity behind and move to a quieter place, and truthfully, I am uncertain about how I would adjust. But while I am here, I will enjoy every moment of my life in the city.
