Comfort comes from the uncomfortable.

I feel safest when I am in a place that I have never been before. Partially because it is excusable to not understand the things around me, and also because there is no time for suspicion or familiarity to form in reoccurrence. While foreign, the threat you pose in passing by once in a lifetime is so minimal that your steps are forgotten the moment they lift.
