The Joy Of Traveling- An Introduction

- “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain


And so it began. It wasn't Mark Twain that motivated me to start traveling in the first place, but I do find his quote very powerful nonetheless. For some few years ago I found my passion in life.  I have always had an fascination for traveling, but I didn't really understand how much I really loved it before I had just turned 21 years old.


Now, several years later - I still find it fascinating. It is something special about entering a total new country somewhere in the world, that are so different from back home. You don't know what to expect ow what lies ahead of you, but that's what makes it to a big adventure!

MY GOAL with this blog is basically to share the joy and fun of traveling, but also the deeper sites of it. I have many personal stories to tell and many experiences to share.
