As I enter the "mid 20's" stage of my life, I find myself looking for a new identity. From my adolescence years, to late teens, and into my young adult life I have always followed the path of being a student/athlete. Now that I have graduated college and have left competitive sports behind, there is now emptiness in my life that yearns to be filled by something. I am not ready to start a career because of the friends that I know who are miserable in those fields. The only traveling I had done was in nice resorts with all expenses paid by family. I never had to fend for my own in a foreign country, or have been able to pick and choose the experiences I wanted for my own. With having some Japanese in my blood (1/4 to be exact), I have always been intrigued by Asian cultures. I decided that I would start my first journey in a country that contains a city life, lush mountains, and beaches. Thailand. The experiences I had in the short 5 weeks I was there started to fill the emptiness I have been experiencing after graduating and made me look further into unknown. My next trip starts in early September of 2019. This trip will include Japan, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, and whatever else I can afford after that. I plan on selling the majority of my things and live/travel with everything I own on person. Sorry for the rant, just a little about my journey the past couple years.
