if you could choose one, and only one dream, what would it be?
For me is travel. Travel to as many places as possible, meeting people, learning about cultures, habits, listening to the traffic, jumping on a bus and all the things that would make me feel part of that particular community, experiencing the local.
It is a deep curiosity that I feed every day, and every day I need more.
This time, my big dream is to travel Australia, reaching each and every one extreme points: Byron Bay (NSW), Cape York (QLD), Steep Point (WA) and Wilson Promontory (VIC).
To do so, I have decided to travel only by car.
I will leave the Gold Coast, where I have been living for the past nine months, on 7th May 2018, I gave myself a deadline and - resolution for the new year - I have to stick to it. You, my dear readers, are my witnesses!
I will not travel completely by myself, in fact for the first part of the T R I P, my housemate will be my partner in crime.
We're constantly checking maps, writing notes on our beautiful diaries, budgeting, counting Km and organising, because this is a trip of a lifetime, with a very limited time. I wish I could say that I can stay here as much as I want, without limits in space and time, but the truth is that I only have three months (pretty standard time for a touristic VISA) and I have a lot to see and do.
I am reading loads of blog posts, people that have done this before, so many things to keep in mind and plenty of decisions to make. So I thought to share with you my journey through the planning of this beautiful trip.
I hope it will be helpful and fun, for you and for me, and mostly I hope that will be useful for those who would really love to travel but feel that it's complicated or too expensive.
I bet you always read those beautiful blog posts and look at amazing pictures and wondering how they get there, well I can assure you that it's easier than you think.
During this journey, you will find out more about me, what I do, how I save money and much more, stay tuned and watch this space.
