I am a firm believer that travelling heals the soul.
After my mummy died I lost it a little bit and a year later took myself off travelling around Europe for the entire summer. I came back a thousand times better and happier and with a serious travel addiction.
There is something about stepping off the plane or train or bus into a completely different world and just being entranced. I would be lying if I said I hadn’t cried on occasion.
For me travel has a magical healing power. You can get over just about anything by heading off to discover a new place.
So I’m taking myself off again for five whole weeks this time to discover South East Asia; Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand.
This trip was planned well over a year ago with my sister but it couldn’t have come at a better time. I have had a strange few months with heart break of all different kinds on all different scales. I’ve worked myself stupid, slept far too little and worried far too much, so my plan… to step off that plane and let real life fade away. To let the travel bug take over, live the moment and experience everything! There is a whole wide world out there, full of the most amazing sights and tastes and experiences and people and I am going to take advantage of every opportunity to discover it. I’ll keep you posted!
