Becoming a travel blogger | This is one big unreal absolute dream!

Time has been going incredibly fast over here. Almost an entire month has passed since my departure. However, that month feels like a week. January is slowly coming to an end now, and I can’t believe that means I’ve been travelling alone the whole time. I even need help understanding January because the temperature never went below 30 degrees. That’s different from what I am used to this time of year. It’s a dream!

Things are going well! I am trying to figure out where to start if I want to tell you about the past few days. Being initiated by a monk, teaching music to children, walking around Kuala LumpurHo Chi MinhPhnom Penh, and many other places. A sunrise at Angkor Wat or a sunset at Petronas Towers is just a small selection of what life brings me!

Luckily for you and me, I’m pretty good at posting my daily videos and blogs. That way, not only can you keep track of where I am, but I can also keep track of when, where and with whom I spent which day. I have not yet had time to process the days; for now, life, experiences and everything together is one big unreal dream.

The solo travelling dream: 

Did I say travelling alone somewhere? You can split that word into two parts because we all travel here as one! Every day, even in the most remote places, we travellers find each other for a day, sometimes several days or sometimes just an hour to spend together. Eating something together, going for a drink, sitting on the bus, visiting things or just lying by the pool is what we do here every day. 

We don’t consider what people look like. Where you come from, why you travel alone, or any other strange subdivision. The moments that we are alone here are also the moments that we consciously choose to be. When you have had enough of the small talk or can no longer tell apart the ten people you met that day.

Oh yeah, did I tell you about the cold showers in the hostels? Or about the people who turn on the light with the necessary noise in the middle of the night? Or the hostels where the cockroaches are on the floor? The long uncomfortable bus journeys? Or the backpack that you sometimes have to carry around for a whole day in this warm weather? Not! 🙂 I’m living the dream! Life is too good here, so we happily take those things with us!
