Creating A Self Fulfilling Prophecy (hopefully)

This evening I am making a promise to myself: Next Summer, in 2011, I plan to travel to many countries. Yep, that is my promise. Many countries in a three month time span. I am thinking Europe. Maybe South America? But most likely Europe to see history and culture. I really want to understand myself and the world a little better so why not travel for three months by myself. None of my immediate family has done anything like this (except for my brother who was in the Navy, but I don't think that counts since he wasn't alone), and my friends who have journeyed far and away only say fantastic things about their memories traveling. I don't think it is very feasible to go for an entire year, but three months is completely possible. If I start planing now and saving some extra cash I can do this. And this blog? Well I'll try to document my journey of preparing, and then hopefully of traveling. Thoughts for the future, how hard would it be to sublet my apartment for three months? Would my kitteh, Ness, hate me for leaving her in the care of somebody else for that long? Can I save enough money to make this possible? Can I muster up the courage to talk to my boss to try to get an entire summer off? Would I get terribly lonely and rush back home to where my friends and family are? Who knows.

  1. Do it! Three months can totally be done for less than $10 grand. Far less, even.
