So I&#8217;m going back for more&#8230;.to set up shop and live there for a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This post was originally published in 2014. It has since been updated for accuracy of links and content. <\/em><br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I Knew it Before I Knew it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shortly after arriving in Peru, I was walking with a friend, and saw a property that called to me. There were two houses on the property; one larger house that I was told was occupied by the owner (who was out of town at the time), and a smaller house nearby. I was inexplicably mesmerized. I asked my friend how much the owner charges to rent out the smaller house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe doesn&#8217;t rent that house out,\u201d was the reply, so I put it out of my mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/p573811578-3.jpg\" alt=\"the house in Peru I would eventually live in, against all odds\"\/><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<p>A few weeks later, the property owner returned, and we met a few times, eventually becoming friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One night, I awoke mid-sleep, and sat bolt upright in bed. It was as if my friend (the property owner) had called my name. I was sure he had a message for me; sure enough to go out on a limb and ask. So the next day I wandered over to his place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDo you have a message for me?\u201d was my opening line, without explanation as to why I was asking such a random question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUm&#8230;eat more greens?\u201d he replied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This wasn&#8217;t exactly the message I expected. I chucked my dream up to &#8216;one of those things&#8217; that we can&#8217;t explain, and forgot about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But as serendipity would have it (quite similar to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/magic-brought-peru\/\">serendipity that brought me to Peru in the first place<\/a>), over the ensuing months I developed a deeper friendship with the property owner, and, despite the fact that he doesn&#8217;t rent out the house that caught my eye and imagination, he offered to rent it out to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a dose of hindsight, I can&#8217;t help but think that this odd sequence of events was part of a greater scheme that played out. This sort of magic isn&#8217;t uncommon in the Sacred Valley of Peru, and is part of the sense of mystery that has enticed me to return.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long Will I Stay?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When I tell people I&#8217;m going to live in Peru for a while, the first question they ask is how long I&#8217;ll stay. My answer: <i><b>I don&#8217;t know.<\/b><\/i><i> <\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After traveling full-time for eight years, I&#8217;ve had a chance to set up shop in a few places; I lived in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/category\/australia\/\">Australia<\/a> on and off for 18 months, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/category\/new-zealand\/\">New Zealand<\/a> (on and off) for nine months, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/random-observations-about-grenada\/\">Grenada<\/a> (again, on and off) for two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In all three cases I used these places as a base for other travels \u2013 something that, regardless of how much I ever \u201csettle down\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/why-settle-down-is-a-bad-word-or-not\/\"><i>oh gosh I dislike that term<\/i><\/a>), I can&#8217;t see myself hanging up my traveling shoes completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/p834995102-3.jpg\" alt=\"Terraced mountainside in the Sacred Valley of Peru\"\/><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br \/>Benefits of Cultural Immersion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I love living around the world (rather than merely passing through it); as much as that place may provide the sense of \u201chome\u201d that I crave in the moment, it also feels like a new world of discovery every time I step outside my front door. <b>It&#8217;s the perfect balance for chronic wanderlust.<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So for now, my next home base is going to be Peru.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For Now?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, for now. I don&#8217;t know how long Peru will feel like home, or when the next amazing place I want to live in will cross my radar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I could stay in Peru for years. Or&#8230;it might just be months.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Home is a Moving Target<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHome\u201d doesn&#8217;t need to be a giant proclamation of permanence; for me, it&#8217;s simply a place that feels good enough to call home for as long as it feels good, it&#8217;s safe and secure, and there&#8217;s something to be gained from being there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What will I gain from my time in Peru?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only time will tell. Stick around, kiddo.<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Update 2017&#8230;Spoiler Alert: It Was Great While it Lasted<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This homeowner from whom I rented this house was also a shaman who ended up becoming my teacher with whom I apprenticed for almost two years. Sadly though, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/apprenticeship-update-big-changes-professional-hobo\/\">it didn&#8217;t last<\/a>, and I closed the door to my beautiful Sacred Valley home mid 2016.
