Wanderlust pt. 2

So I read this amazing blogpost about a week ago, called don't date a girl who travels. It made all my wishes for travel come back, and it also made me realize that I'm far from ready to settle down just yet. There's so many places to see, people to meet and things to do! 


As I've said before - there are countries I want to see before I get a house, kids and all that normal stuff.. But there's also so many things I want to do! Until 2012 I wanted to go skydiving and bungyjumping. I did both in one day (can't say I would recomend that, you won't get any sleep after that). I also wanted to travel all by myself, and I did. I still want to go somewhere and just be my own company, and make friends from across the world, but I also want to bring some of my best friends across the world and let them see all the wonders with me. 


And don't get me wrong, I love my friends to the end of the world, but some of them are not cut out for travel. One friend said to me - "I really want to go to "syden" (anywhere with sun and a beach), to see some cultural stuff". And I'm looking at her, thinking to myself - no, you want to get a tan. I want to go to Brazil and see the carnival, or to go back to Australia to dive with great whites. Anything that will get my adrenalin pumping, that will drive me a tiny bit craycray, or anywhere that I can learn something. 

And this is why that blogpost hit me. 
I'll always want to see more, never want to settle down, and I'll always be selfish when it comes to travel and adventure.
"So never date a girl who travels unless you can keep up with her. And if you unintentionally fall in love with one, don't you dare keep her. Let her go."
