One more paycheck and I'm gone
No
Atlanta to LA to New Zealand/Australia... to SE Asia to India... to Europe and then home. Possibility of Israel depending on conditions. Not exact locations yet, suggestions helpful.
I've always liked to travel and be adventurous. Lately I've been getting into a hellishly boring routine. Plus I recently just graduated from college and want to travel for 6 months to a year before grad school.
I'm really just afraid of being at the wrong place at the wrong time, and this is something you can't always help. I just want to feel safe even if I don't always know where I am or where I'm going. I think I let all the horror stories get to my head even though they are fairly rare.
Yes, everyone is very supportive. If only it was financial support!
Just Enough
I'm packing very little clothes and have no idea what will be the most indispensable. I think it will be clean underwear. Those are pretty useful.
No clue. The possibilities are endless.
For now... broke is the joke I don't think is funny... I need a better job!
One or two weeks only gives you a taste. Who goes to eat a meal and only takes one bite?
Get away. Test myself, my limits, my creativity. I like to be a little different than the normal herd.
No clue. Got any?
