Happy, sad, tired, proud, confused, bewildered, overwhelmed, disillusioned, excited, scared, hopeful, grateful, powerful, vulnerable, emotional, and utterly depleted. Feeling ALL the feelings, many of which contradict one another. Enjoying blue skies and SUNSHINE! So exhausted. Like I could sleep 27 consecutive days/nights, without a single night off. Thankful to this #hoponhopoff#lisboa bus for making #lisbon easy, and giving me a place to see the sights/sun and apparently, sleep. Did I mention I’m just a wee bit knackered?!

Welp, goodbye EDI! I would say that was the hardest/most fulfilling thing I’ve ever done, but it wasn’t. It was the hardest/most fulfilling thing I’ve done SINCE I did it the last time! (I just forgot how hard/fulfilling it was!) Like climbing Kilimanjaro, only theatre. Thank you, #Edinburgh, but especially Elizabeth Gore Stanley, @ghostscanbereal, Karin Kanewske Turner & Gilded Balloon for being my sherpas along the way. Time now to decompress on a quick, European getaway before recentering real life. Much to unpack (literally & emotionally), never mind wine to drink! #americanwhorestory#edinburghfringe#photoby Christian Schliep
