I’ve seen the same question popping up in nomad groups and travel forums: I had plans to go to the U.S. for work/study/tourism… is it really that bad? The short answer? Yes. Changing travel plans is expensive; it sucks, and I get it. Our (Canadian) family canceled our March Break trip because our flights required transiting through the U.S. With a foreign exchange student in our group, I was having serious anxiety about it.

Starting over sounds exciting, doesn’t it? A fresh start. A blank slate. A new chapter. And it is all those things. But what no one tells you is that starting over can also be exhausting and disorienting. Sometimes, it’s lonely as hell. We romanticize reinvention, but the truth is that leaving behind a familiar life comes with its own kind of grief.

Words: Miranda MillerPhotos: Dave Trumpore & Cam MackenzieIn 2019, I was at the first round of the NW Cup, dropping in for my last practice run before seeding. I hit a mud puddle in the compression of a high-speed chute and was shot offline and directly into a tree. The GoPro footage is disturbing—my hands clawed into t-rex arms, and my unconscious body was stiff. A high-pitched squeal came from my mouth, turning into scream-crying as I woke up.
