> *“I think there's this idea that people have of going to Europe or whatever and finding yourself, and I think that's a load of shit. I don't think you can go find yourself in a nightclub in Budapest or anything like that. But something that I did realize is once you get out of your home environment, for me, getting out of Atlanta and going to... I didn't know anybody in Barcelona when I got there, that was my first stop. It kind of separates the parts of you that were a byproduct of your environment, where you fit in and the social hierarchy of where you are. And then the stuff that's left is what you actually like. So I don't think you find yourself when you're going in hostel-hopping, but you do get a lot better idea of what stuff you did was actually stuff you wanted to do or what stuff you value.”*
