Alicante seems small and plain and dirty compared to the majestic Madrid. And taxi-scarce. I walked for 15 minutes from the train station before finding a taxi.
Battling insomnia. Even though I was nearly asleep in the train station.
My hypothesis is that I stay awake in this apartment because I hope that the loneliness of living alone will somehow disappear between night and morning. Living by myself in the host home seemed like a safe choice when I filled out my profile, but now I wish I had asked for a roommate. I always planned to live alone when I graduate from dorm-life, but now I hesitate to relive this heavy silence.
I come home brimming with stories to tell, and they end up being dead letters, sent with care but demolished by the void of a deserted apartment.
I look forward to a home with more members than just me, even despite constant disagreements and compromises. I've never felt home-sick before, and I had never expected to. I guess maybe I miss home now.
