It has been a while since I last wrote a blog post (more than an year :-o). I moved to the US as part of my work and it took me time to get settled here.

I am taking nothing more than a backpack and the air in my lungs to see the world. I have a list of places that intrigue me and I want to experience what they have to offer. I guess I'm just unsure why more people don't travel. Is it fear? Is it lack of confidence in one's self? What? I want to know why people say "I could never do what your doing."
