My heart is beating faster. My left hand is shaking. Every thought in my head is gearing toward the question, will I survive? Checking every corner of my one boxed room from outside intruders, the critters. Or am I the intruder as the new person to occupy this space now? Welcome to the island life everyone says. It’s different and a lot of new challenges. I have no answer to give when everyone asks how is it. I am still adjusting, adapting, and acclimating to a new environment and lifestyle.
