And the journey begins...

It's time to realize a dream; a journey composed by my and for me which takes me around the world to places I have yet to establish acquaintances with, but which I long to meet. I know not what to expect, only what to hope for: a trip filled with a different view of the world, a second opinion, impressions that will last a lifetime, memories which will stay glued to my heart and soul like a tattoo sticks to skin. I hope for moments that will encourage, inspire, give me hope, leave me in disbelief, anger me, break my heart and take my breath away. These are high expectations, but in these ignorant pre-departure hours, I believe that these moments are all elements that will complete the experience I'm seeking. I know very little at the moment of what the months up ahead will bring, but I know I will do my best to be present, alive and living every step of this journey.

So, where am I going? The route goes as follows (roughly): Russia, Mongolia, China (Tibet), Nepal, India, Qatar, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, South-Africa, Bolivia, Peru and USA.

I'm heading to St.Petersburg tomorrow, and here's where the first part of the journey takes me: Roam St Petersburg to Beijing. Thereafter I'm heading towards Tibet on the Tibet Encompassed. My bags are packed and I'm ready for my adventure of a lifetime.

Explore. Dream. Discover
