One more paycheck and I'm gone.
No
Don't have a complete route yet but my trip will include Thailand,
Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia and NZ.
I wanted to set a challenge for myself and this is what I came up with.
I'm about to lose my job which will give me the time to finally do it.
Being lonely and not having enough money to do all that I would like to do.
Some are but most think I won't really do it.
Planning is for tourists
Not sure what will but it could very well be my boots and sandals.
I think it will make me a stronger person both mentally and physically.
It will hopefully teach me a lot about other cultures, people and languages.
Exciting, scary but mostly I can't wait to go.
Because that way you can immerse yourself into other cultures which isn't
possible in 2 weeks.
I can't do it....
Because there's more to the world than just this tiny little country.
Just do it !!!!
