if you know me, i am an over-thinker. i am also very emotional so i over-think with a lot of passion and emotion. i am also rational and independent with a good sense of direction and i can pretty much make the most of any situation i'm in.
hopefully these qualities can guide me as i get lost in this journey of self discovery...
"flights are books! i'm taking off in july!!! #janelostinwanderlust" (fb status 4/1/15)
my first solo trip! SOLO TRIP!!! it came to me by surprise because i'd always wanted to travel, talked about traveling for a really long time but never thought i'd do it alone! it just happened that it worked out that way...
i've been researching where i'd like to go on my first trip for the last 2 months! it started with italy: rome, siena, florence, pisa, cinque terre, milan, venice, verona...spain: barcelona, run with the bulls in pamplona...then i looked into croatia and the beautiful plitvice lakes national park and krka national park...researching led me to think i need more time and money to do europe...so i ended up scratching the whole thing, i'll save europe for next summer (THE WHOLE SUMMER)! i even entertained the thought of going to israel! can you imagine walking the streets that Jesus walked?! how crazy is that! figi, greece, new zealand, costa rica, puerto rico, peru, bahamas...the list is endless! so this time i started all over again, just thinking about myself and what i wanted to get out of the trip but mostly what i can afford!
my travel plans this year...
summer 2015:
singapore
krabi, thailand
ko phi phi, thailand
phuket, thailand
chiang mai, thailand
bangkok, thailand
bali, indonesia
sydney, australia
winter 2015:
oahu, hawaii (running the honolulu26.2)
there are many reasons why i want to travel. i want to see the world. i've only traveled within the united states, and been to south korea and canada. all amazing places but i want more! i have the rest of my life to travel. how AWEsome is that? i want to commit myself to traveling each year and inspire others to do so as well. i want to meet new people, places, cultures, and truly experience it all! i want to wake up early every morning and go for a run and just get lost in the world.
i hope that this journey, my journey, will not only open my eyes to who i am but what i want to share with others!
i feel nervous, excited, scared...it's like i'm on a roller coaster ride! i can't believe this trip is actually happening!!!
