So, I have been reading all kinds of travel blogs and anything I can get my hands on about the places that we are going to lately and that should be a good thing right? No. Not for me. I am stressing myself, and Andi out!! My problem is that when I read something about somewhere I feel like I NEED to go there, then I get all paniked about not having enough time and I trying to plan out every day of our trip. I know its pointless to try to imagine what it is going to be like, and actually I dont even want to have everything planned out, I want to be free to go where the road takes us, but I can't help it!! In my search for travel information I came across this great quote the other day and it is helping me to remember why we are doing this;
"I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move" - Robert Louis Stevenson
We don't have a giant checklist of things to see in the world that we need to follow, we don't have to compare our travels with anyone else's, we are doing this trip for us. For us to experience new things together, to grow and live this adventure together. If we don't get to go to the Galapogos Islands, who cares, we will see something else, somewhere else that is amazing in its own, or maybe it will be crappy, thats not the point. The point is just to go.
I have to keep reminding myself of that.
