Well it was heavier than Scotland as I tried to pack for a year. That was going to be impossible but also realised from people I would be buying on the way. And today in the hot humidity of Bangkok, I wish I had room for the £2 (tbh 100) pants I saw everywhere! Mine …

Living the life you want to live – live your dreams
Will it fit? And can I carry it?
The rucksack is a 7 litre Osprey which I chose after some research and trying it out. Weighing just 3 lbs it is very light and roomy. I have tried it in Scotland but only to the station, from the station and back to the station and walking home etc. Still, I managed! The …
Scotland the Brave!
My practice travel to Edinburgh last week was very good. I managed the rucksack and all my needs in it, and learned a few tips for myself like have essential needs in a bum bag or small bag at the front! I met some nice people, stayed with my friend's neighbour in the spare room …
Going with the Flow …
Going with the flow enables us to 'be in flow' too sometimes. You know those times when things run smoothly, opportunities appear just as you need them and life seems easy (for a change)? Saturday morning was one for me - popping to the local village for birthday items, I realised my hair needed doing before …
Where am I going?

I moved my stuff into store today and visited my first ever Airbnb accommodation locally, as I am staying for an important family birthday at the end of July, and …
Those moments …
Life is not about maintaining the status quo. Life is not about playing it safe every second. Life is not about standing still and wallowing in self-doubt. It’s about connecting with your soul, respecting your integrity, and telling yourself that you’re able. It’s about taking a few steps, regardless of how hard and small they …
Career Development through Travelling
This link highlights some great benefits of volunteering abroad to enrich your CV and offer the experience as a way in to a new career perhaps "volunteering-abroad-could-help-with-starting-a-new-career". I know that my travel plans are about personal and professional development for me, although most people are seeing my 'year's travel' as an extended holiday, doing …
Some great links to share
Here I thought I'd share some links that I have found from other's sharing on the internet too, from researching bits and pieces for my travel plans and just getting a feel for what's involved and the options there are. My first and favourite one, my gospel in fact, has been Nomadic Matt's Facebook and …
A little learning …
Since I started my plans for travelling, I have learned a lot, mainly that there is a lot! A lot to learn, a lot to do, a lot to consider and choose, decide, share, explain, manage and monitor! Visas Image courtesy of Brandon Sigma via www. freedigitalphotos.com These are difficult to manage en mass, with a …
