Showcase April - Thoughts from a Hostel's kitchen

I've been volunteering in a hostel in the Mexican Caribbean for the past month. During the first weeks I was the "Beer pong and poker dude", then I did some maintenance work during the evening and now, I'm in charge of getting the breakfast ready - waking up at 6:30 am. I know, I'm also impressed I'm waking up so early, you're not the only one amazed.

If you don't know what volunteering in a hostel is, it's pretty much working for a few hours a day in exchange for accommodation, sometimes with meals included. As you can see, it fits perfectly to a low budget travel style kind of person.

I've been laying low here waiting for a sign about what my next move should be.

One of my life mottos (probably the most important one right now, above "remember, be here now") is "If you have a goal, you should focus in getting it, but not too much, otherwise, if you are fixated on it you´ll miss any other opportunity that may present to you".

So, I'm open to any and every sign from anyone and everyone, to point me in the right direction.

So now you know, if you have control over the sun or a shooting star, signal me.

Also, I have 378 direct messages on discord, today will be about replying to each and every one of them. Read you over discord, my friends.

As always, the best of wishes to you during your journey. Wherever it take you, you are totally correct. What is important is to be present in this moment.

Volunteering is funny and a nice experience. Also a good chance to travel cheap. I like poker dude. Hahahaha. Hope you won all-time....
