Freedom, independence, adventure, passion and challenge. Those are the six simple words that define my core values, which I worked out when I did a life coaching session exactly 12 months ago. So, it wasn’t hard to decide what I had to do next when I had to decide between my next career move, buying a house and going traveling. I mean how much freedom and passion can you possibly get out of being a home owner? So, anyway to cut a long story short, oe minute I was doing 50h working weeks thinking work was the most important thing in my life and the next minute I was tossing up kayaking in Alaska versus trekking in the Andies when I was booking my round the world fare.
So here I am. 30 years old, resigned from work and 12h away from embarking on a trip of a life time. Around the world in six months. No work, no specific plans, no traveling companions, no alarm clocks. Just me and the unknown. Am I excited? You betcha. Am I scared? You betcha. Will I have the time of my life? You betcha.
Although my itinerary will take me through a lot of exciting places the three things that are the big things for me - I mean the three moments I have dreamt of all my life - are:
1) Kayaking down the bluest fiord contrasted by the whiteness of the ice bergs rising from the sea in Alaska
2) Sitting by a waterhole in the Serengeti watching Zebras sipping water while a hippo is watching them carefully
3) Enjoying a glass of red wine and a freshly baked baguettes at a winery after having climbed the Alp d’huez on my bike
Is it too much to say: I want it all? No, I don’t think so. Life is short and very precious. I have decided to do EVERYTHING I want and pursue my dreams. So this is my dream. I hope you will all enjoy my thoughts that I will put in this blog because that is all they are. The world seen through one pair of eyes.
I welcome your feedback.
Hello World, Here I am.
