What happens when you hit rock bottom on a long-distance moving train journey? In this raw and honest train vlog story, I take you with me on a solo cross-country train ride that turned into an unexpected turning point. From emotional breakdowns in a sleeper car (luxury?) to moments of quiet clarity, and scenic train ride, this experience forced me to face my thoughts, confront my fears, and ultimately make a powerful mental shift.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, burned out, or like life was spiraling, this video is for you. This isn’t just a travel vlog—it’s a mental health journey, a story of self-discovery, and a real-life reminder that breakthroughs often happen in the most unexpected places.

Topics Covered:

  1. Mental health on the road
  2. How travel forces you to reflect
  3. Mindset shifts during solitude
  4. Turning discomfort into growth
  5. From breakdown to breakthrough
