The Urge of Traveling

Hey netizens! :) No. I am not going anywhere! But my imagination gone overboard already. It's amazing seeing myself in different places, countries and experiencing different cultures! I feel like I should try traveling once. I should also pamper myself! I've read this line from a famous celebrity in the Philippines that inspires me a lot and here it goes: The world is a book and those who don't travel read only a page. I'm the one who haven't explore things beyond my comfort zone and I realize I should try it once while I'm still young. I don't wanna regret it when I'm old and say I should have been there, done that, this and etc. So, I'll be working double time now to earn more and save more for the trip that I'm planning! Sounds pretty exciting! Since I haven't fixed my passport yet, I'm thinking of traveling just around the country and who knows, next time I'll be flying to somewhere I wouldn't expect I'd be. Who wants to come with me?

The thought of travel always excites me.I love to travel.I want to earn more money and I so I can afford it.Memories of new places and cities remain long in my mind. And when the weather outside is warm,more increases my desire for travel. I wish for all lovers of travel more money and leisure.

Yep! We need to work hard to be able to travel. Because without money, we can't book our flights, the itineraries and of course, there will be no food. Its not easy (obviously) to be in a totally strange place without your budgeting plan! :) That's why we need to work extra hard to be able to travel anywhere we want to be!

I love traveling! And, it is true. It opens your eyes. You think you can learn much just from reading and watching, but, setting foot on a place and seeing it gives you another perspective. So, I encourage you to travel. And, that's right do it while you're young. Read travel blogs and you'll learn that you can travel on a budget.

Oh yes! I can see it already! The travel magazines that I read yesterday says that the best part of being in a new place is being lost. In that case, you'll discover something in yourself that you never thought you have and you'll see the place amazingly than just the normal tour! So, I'm bracing myself to get lost one day! HAHAHAHA!

I had a colleague who was one blessed soul as she and her husband would take time off and see new places every single year. I got so tempted and got my husband into agreeing to go on our first trip - a small one though - and then it never ended, I have covered several places globally Singapore being our first holiday abroad. It was Christmas time and the place was so beautifully decorated - every mall, every street with Santas floating all over the place. There were discount sales every where and that was the time I bought some foreign chocolates and had a good feed of them every single day we were there. I can write a book on my travel experiences and I am forever in the attitude of gratitude that I could do it.

It is really lovely that you have the urge to go off traveling somewhere. I wish you lots of luck with your planning and your trip wherever you end up going to. It is superb that you are working double time to save up for your travel expenses. Good luck with fixing up your passport soon. You will like getting lots of passport stamps. My last trip was to Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Uruguay. I traveled with my four year old disabled son and my two year old daughter. We had a fantastic trip and we came home with many happy memories.

I also like traveling very much. Traveling can broaden people's vision,learning about many different cultures fresh people physically and mentally. In my spare time i often set aside some time to go out ,hiking ,relaxing myself. Not only traveling can do the things above, it gives people a time to forget themselves, I think.

I would love to come with you LOL I am taking my son on a cruise the first week in January. he needs a vacation and we are planning on going. My husband and I are planning on an Alaskan Cruise next year. So I am excited to get to go on my adventures next year. Especially the one with my son. Him and I get so excited at seeing things we are like two kids together. I want him to go dive in the 2nd largest coral reef in Belize. Then I want him to see the mayan ruins in Cozumel. So we are both saving to do this. Isn't exciting to plan and know you will get to go somewhere for all your hard work of saving? Let us know where you want to go. Other than seeing the glaciers in Alaska, I only want to see Italy and also Poland. Then i would be finished traveling. I am getting older and want to enjoy where I go without all the aches and pains of being older. I hope you get to travel to all the places you want to go to!

Alaskan Cruise? That is amazing! I'm sure your son would love it. Especially that it seems like a family bonding! I'd love to soar high as I don't want to regret every single minute of my life! :) On my wishlist, I'd like to explore my country first then, the entire Asia.. Especially Japan and South Korea! :) If I'm really really rich in the future, I'd tour the whole world with my family! *fingers crossed.* Thanks Marie! We have the same name!

Hi bunso! You know what?! You should do it now,I mean,now that you're still young and are able,I'm serious! Why did I say so? 'Cause there was a time in my life last year that I've regretted things regarding traveling. I've said that I should have traveled a long time ago when my daughter is not yet in our family. And now that I have the urge to visit some plays,we can't 'cause Crystal is still young. Anyways,we can still travel when she's grown up,I hope by that time,we still have the energy,lol! Good luck bunso!

I'm having second thoughts if we will let Crystal go with us bunso,we somehow plan to visit Bora as our 2nd honeymoon,hehe! But I pity Crystal,for sure she will insist on going with us. And the thing is,if she will go,we wont be able to do snorkling or any other activities then,waaa!!!

I love traveling and who knows we might bump into each other somewhere. Getting your passport fixed in the Philippines is now easy so I think you wouldn't be having a hard time with that. In the meantime, I suggest that you follow through with your plans of exploring our country. Philippines is a beautiful place and it would be sad to miss out on a lot of things that it can offer. Happy traveling.
