One Month

Today I stand exactly one month out from the beginning of  the trip of a lifetime.

I have been asked quite a bit about where I am going, what I am doing, and why. To put it quite simply, I don't know. The only things that I do know are where I am flying to and that I am also going it alone. This is an opportunity for me to set up a situation where I literally live in the unknown. The unknown is scary, intimidating, looming; however, it is an opportunity to see the good in not knowing and also forces me to stand on my own two feet to take care of myself and learn about who I am. What am I capable of? what scares me? what brings me happiness, joy, excitement? I do not fully know the answers to these questions as of yet, but I hope on my return that I will.

This trip will serve as my own adaptation on a wanderjahr:  a year of wandering.  I will only be wandering for about a month and primarily by train, not foot.  I am looking forward to this trip; I am bright-eyed, bushy-tailed, and ready to go.

Where will I go?  Follow my blog to find out!
