The first thing that greets me as I step into my new home is the cold. It slaps me brutally and unapologetic going straight to my core. As I look around it hits me that this will be my first time living alone. Even when I was in university my parents made sure of that, choosing a university close to home and constantly dropping by. Unlike most of my friends, I looked forward to those visits, they reminded me that I was never really alone, but now, here in another man’s land, with the cold and air that sits different in my lungs, I wasn’t so sure.
