wanderlust

So I recently re-discovered a website that I had signed up for a while ago. Its kind of like a myspace for people who like to travel. I had stumbled upon it once upon a time, but then never went back. Well on my birthday this year, I got a bunch of “happy birthday’s” from random people on there which made me check it out again. Bad idea. These people who are on this site have traveled everywhere. I mean seriously, they have been aaalll over. I keep looking at everyone I can find and just keep getting more and more jealous!

From time to time I dream about just quitting my job and traveling. Well this website is just making me reallly want to do that. Maybe it would be different if I had a job that I loved or something, but the more I think about it, the more awesome it seems. I have a nice chunk of money saved up…I was going to use it to buy a house, but hey, you’re only young once!

Here’s where I would go: I would start in Iceland and spend a few days there.

these people are having fun in Iceland!

Then I’d head over to the UK…see Ireland, Scotland, re-visit England. Look at all the castles and the green countryside. Search for Nessy (you know, she hangs out in Loch Ness).

somewhere in Ireland, I'll find it!

Then I’d move on to Spain and Portugal. Maybe go during the running of the bulls. I’d see more of France…I’d go to Andorra, which just sounds like a place that you’d find in a fairy tale, so I think it would be amazing!

who wouldn't want to go here? it looks magical!

I’d see Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. See the Berlin wall, eat some yummy chocolate and find some cool Dutch people. Go to Finland and Sweden. Austria, Croatia and Poland. Spend some time in Russia. See Italy again.

Then I would move on to Asia! I’d see Hong Kong and Tokyo…go to India and Thailand, the Philippines and Indonesia…stop by Australia for a while…head on over to Israel and see the Holy lands!

Great Wall of China!!

I think I could pack really light and stay in cheap places. Maybe I would just meet all the people on this fancy website and stay at their homes….maybe I would get murdered, but I would die having fun!

Sigh, someone needs to talk me out of this, stat!
