Up, up and away

Well the day has finally come and am off to my last continent. I can’t believe it, three years in the making it’s finally happening. I’m a bundle of nerves since it’s been so long since I’ve travelled by myself, but I am confident it’s going to be an amazing trip. I don’t know what it is but being at the airport seems to calm me and thrill me at the same time.

This trip has required tons of patience, practicality, suffered postponement and money. Not going to lie, the visas alone were almost $600 ... 🤢

But I’m doing it.

This trip signifies a lot for me. It’s the last continent I need to cross, once I’ve landed I will have stepped foot on all seven continents. Quite the feat for someone under 35. This makes me proud and feel accomplished. And I also am visiting where my cousins were adopted from (Russia) which I have longed to go there since I was 13/14.

So follow along as I share my journey through Asia, from the hidden hutongs, wandering the Great Wall, sleeping in a Yurt, and walking through the Red Square. I’ll try and post as much as I can of my journey, but when you’re going to be on a train for upwards of 40 hours, WiFi may not be readily available.

Boarding is starting, so Ta Ta For Now ... Let my Adventure Begin 😀Читать далее
