I'm Leaving soon ....

In four days I shall be on the plane heading back to Sardinia, Italy. This will be my fourth stint on board one of the Superyachts based there. Usually I will work for 6 months and then come home back to South Africa until the season starts again, but this time I am planning a Eurotrip  - basically just travelling as much as I can in Europe, maybe even hit up Thailand and Indonesia.

I am pretty keen for this new adventure, traveling alone - I think is my biggest fear. I've always traveled with someone, but now that we are no longer together I have to put my 'big girl panties' on and get moving. There are so many places I want to see and things I want to do. If I start now I will have a good few years to spend traveling. {Excited much ?!}

One of my favourite parts about traveling is the airports, not so much the layovers but the feeling you get when you check in, knowing that in a few hours you will be in a totally different country, with new people to meet, foods to taste and life to experience. Then there is the flight itself, I have always enjoyed flying (not so much the taking off and landing) but the experience itself, its always different - the air hostesses are super friendly, the food is never bad, and they have up to date films and series - so I am never bored.

When traveling I do miss my family and friends a lot, but I'm pretty sure they are happy that I am doing what I love. I can't wait to be back in Europe/Italy, it is so very gorgeous. So the time is nearly here - countdown has begun. All that's left is for the packing to start {Missions!}, but always fun.
