Loveable Quotes

Travelling is not just seeing the new; it is also leaving behind. Not just opening doors; also closing them behind you, never to return.
But the place you have left forever is always there for you to see whenever you shut your eyes.
jan Myrdal


I have wandered all my life and i have travelled; the difference between the two is this :
we wander for distraction but we travel for fulfillment.
Hillaire Belloc


If you actually look like your passport photo, you aren't well enough to travel.
Sir Vivian Fuchs

So little time............

Since buying my ticket to australia over 2months ago, have been planning and putting deposits down for tours and volunteer work while out there. Time is fast approaching and still have lots to do. I know its 7months away but as i only get paid monthly it doesn't give me much time as such..........As i can only spend certain amounts between each pay day, leaving me enough to live on till next month..........
this is the bit that i hate having to do, why can't things just fall into place! As i am going at a time when other brits are going, will be summer in Oz, places ie hostels, book up quick. Having to plan in advance is good as you save later and don't have to worry about what to do next. But at the same time can be stressful with planning arrival dates, hostel accomodation and timing of travel in between towns, cities.
Of course all these panic attacks will subside once everything is sorted & i finally arrive Down Under..................

Time for a summer " Down Under "

Now all i have to do is wait for the next 8months to pass away as soon as possible for i have finally booked my next travel expo. And this time will be going for an aussie summer, experiencing christmas & new year, all on my own & far away from home, family & friends !
Leaving england on 16th November for Melbourne, spending time in australia visiting family & friends before going off to New Zealand in search of work to fund further travel & to experience the quality of work out there.
For the search of a new beginnning, a new career, experience the lifestyles of a better place, to do some good in a more rewarding & in a location where i would prefer to be !!!

Another Year Gone !

Another Year Gone for me, having turned 29 only 2weeks ago and feeling no different. I ponder many thoughts including what job/career do i want.............?
Wishing that once again i could travel, right now, far away from this little country we all know & love ! Needing to get away, clear my thoughts and relax under summer sun all year round.

What Next for Woody ?

After having been back in the uk for 2months now, the world beckons once again. Life is so dull here, back at the old job i was doing before i left for Africa. Still doing everything & not getting paid for it. It really just sucks !!!!!!!!!!
When do you stop doing something that you really love and enjoy doing ? is there a point in life at which you say to yourself, right this is my last travel experience ? when is the right time ?
Am already planning my next adventure but at the same time have the desire to get my own place, one year to go before i'm 30 and need to move out of home. Want to do both but know i can't ...........................
