It is true what they say, that the more you see the more you want to see. Suddenly one trip turns into a hunger for another three and you’re left trying to find time and money. If you’ve been thinking about a trip, take the plunge and go. Set yourself a goal, save some money and dedicate what time you can to experience a new culture and immerse yourself in a new place. Where I want to go this year is a loooong list, but topping them are:
- Being a Sydney-sider I have always wanted to go to Melbourne and somehow never found the time. While it is not far and may not be a huge cultural difference being in the same country and all, it is still somewhere I have never been and therefore, different.
- Hunter Valley. Again it’s somewhere ‘local’ being that it’s only 1-2 hours from where I live, but it’s known for its wine (and cheese) and a relaxing weekend spent overlooking grassy hills and listening to nothing but the wind sounds too good to pass up.
- Mount Everest. After watching the film Everest, a small spark was ignited to see this immense and incredible piece of land. To be able to say I climbed to Base Camp and saw the majestic Everest will be an incredible adventure. Albeit exhausting.
- Angkor Wat has been calling my name for what feels like months now. I want to wander through these temples and learn of the immense history and hear stories of others’ lives.
What are your travel goals this year?
