Welcome to a the feature that is going to run every other Tuesday on The Phoenix Remix! The strand Listed! has now come to an end, thank you for those who read it, however from now on we are going on a different adventure – welcome to the brand new feature called 100 Weeks of Discovery!

The shop Paperchase, is sadly coming to an end but in the weeks to the run up, I have been visiting to find out what books I can use to create articles from and luckily yet again, I was welcomed with a brand new one called A Pocketful of Self Discovery!

So for 100 weeks we are going to explore the prompts and see what happens! Enjoy!

Week 38 – When did you last push the boundaries of your comfort zone?

Solo Travel

If there is one thing I love doing then it is solo travel – it can be a really fun experience and it allows you to grow as a person. The most nerve-wracking time I did this was when I lived in New York City by myself – being so far from home in an unknown environment can be quite nerve-wracking and initially it was but I slowly got used to it.

One Steep slide

Something I strongly remember from childhood is that at a lot of places we used to visit on holiday in Devon had a really steep slide in children’s play areas. As a nine year old, I found these to look terrifying but I was determined that by the time we went home I would go down this slide. I remember the fear, I remember looking down the ninety degree angle and feeling frightened and really nervous. I eventually did go down this slide and it was amazing – I went down it so many times after that as I loved the adrenaline rush.

Always looking for something new

Life is more exciting when there a few risks and chances involved. There are always things that pop up and today I have only mentioned a couple but there are so many more I could discuss. I look forward to the next one when it pops up.
