Eight months from now, I will be fre-eeeeee!
Free in the sense that I will be jobless; I will be a married woman; and Chris and I will be on a 6 month journey to discover ourselves.....and come up with a brilliant business idea along the way.
Meanwhile, many of our friends, peers, and colleagues are also getting married, having babies, buying their first homes, and getting settled.
As all of you probably know, aside from getting married, Chris and I will be doing none of the things that our friends/peers/colleagues are doing. Why? Because we would have spent a substantial portion of our savings on the trip. Though we will not be completely broke after we come back, but we will be far from stable, so to speak.
Of course, the decision to go on this trip around the world is not easy. To this day, I still have some doubts about it. Is it worth it? Will it be as rewarding as everyone says? Will I regret blowing my savings on a loooong vacation? What if I don't discover anything new about myself? What if I come back the same? Exactly the same....but broke??
But most of the time though, I'm quite excited about the trip. I certainly think I am very lucky to be able to even think about going on such a trip. And to actually go on this trip and share the experience with Chris is just that much more amazing.
So, wish us luck! <3
