Well, i can't believe how quickly this is all coming around.
Three more weeks and ill be over in South East Asia.
At the moment, every day that goes past brings me a new feeling, whether it be anxiety, nervousness or excitement.
It seems that at the moment, one day i will be so happy that the trip is getting closer and closer, and the next day i am dreading it.
I'm afraid that i will miss my friends and family so much i wont enjoy myself while i am away. But its generally a normal thing for me to expect the worst.
I'm sure i will have the time of my life.
I have managed to get pretty much everything organised so I'm almost ready to go. I have bought nearly everything i will need to take with me on my trip, Backpack, camera, laptop and a good sleeping bag. I've organised my Visa's, my passport, photocopies of all my documents. A load of flights and accommodation booked throughout asia and have organised my Foreign currency.
I feel like I'm ready to take on the world, but we will see. there will be something there that i have totally forgotten.
I'm happy when people ask me the question 'how long are you going away for?' and simply replying that i have a one-way ticket. I really would love to just get lost overseas and see how far my savings can get me, wind up working in a Kibbutz in rural Israel or something wild like that.
This will be one hell of an adventure regardless of whether i come back in 6 months or in a few years time. It's going to be really interesting as to where abbots in the UK exactly i will end up settling down in and finding work, i have put no thought into that what so ever.
