So.

I just booked a flight to Dublin.

My Swartz and I will be getting to Dublin about ~2 weeks before our study abroad starts in London so that we can fuck around Europe for a lil bit.

I AM JUST SO FUCKING EXCITED

"Yes, God, I want to talk to everybody I can as deeply as I can. I want to be able to sleep in an open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night."

Sylvia Plath

Everyone is so used to me talking about dropping out of school and becoming a nomad…

But meow that I’m going to Europe this summer, I’m actually not joking when I say I might not come back. 

I guess they’re in for a surprise.

I’m going to end up graduating with a Master’s degree, and then spending the rest of my life on a perpetual road trip with no money or possessions.

"Travel is little beds and cramped bathrooms. It’s old television sets and slow Internet connections. Travel is extraordinary conversations with ordinary people. It’s waiters, gas station attendants, and housekeepers becoming the most interesting people in the world. It’s churches that are compelling enough to enter. It’s McDonald’s being a luxury. It’s the realization that you may have been born in the wrong country. Travel is a smile that leads to a conversation in broken English. It’s the epiphany that pretty girls smile the same way all over the world. Travel is tipping 10% and being embraced for it. Travel is the same white T-shirt again tomorrow. Travel is accented sex after good wine and too many unfiltered cigarettes. Travel is flowing in the back of a bus with giggly strangers. It’s a street full of bearded backpackers looking down at maps. Travel is wishing for one more bite of whatever that just was. It’s the rediscovery of walking somewhere. It’s sharing a bottle of liquor on an overnight train with a new friend. Travel is “Maybe I don’t have to do it that way when I get back home.” It’s nostalgia for studying abroad that one semester. Travel is realizing that “age thirty” should be shed of its goddamn stigma."

I just feel this so much.

"Traveling is like flirting with life. It’s like saying, ‘I would stay and love you, but I have to go; this is my station.’"

"Please be a traveler, not a tourist. Try new things, meet new people, and look beyond what’s right in front of you. Those are the keys to understanding this amazing world we live in."
