I ran across your blog on accident, and I must say, I have spent the last hour reading your blog and looking at your site. This blog really struck home with me. Why? Because I too have been thinking your exact same thoughts, but I have not come to any conclusion. Not about being sleazy, but about the whole travel lifestyle. I ask myself, Am I running away from something? I just turned 34 and I am currently traveling in Australia. Im trying to decide what to do next, but I am so confused. Should I stay traveling, or should I go home back to Austin, Texas and start to lay down some roots? I know that only I can make that decision, but it seems very hard to make.
I traveled alone for the first time in 2006. I quit my job, sold all of my shit, packed a bag and booked a flight for Amsterdam. It was by far the best 3 months of my life. When I got back to Texas in July of 2006, I had to start all over....and I did. I had a great time for the last 2 years, then all of the sudden I got that feeling again that I wanted to run. I did the same thing, and now I am in Australia visiting friends I met in Europe. I dont know if I am running, or if I am just bored. I have more friends then I can manage, Im smart, and I have proven to be capable of doing anything I have set my mind to. Sometimes I wonder if having so many options makes the decision harder to make.
I just wanted to say Thank You for sharing your thoughts so honestly and openly. I too know how exposed you can feel blogging about your travels, your thoughts, your opinions for everyone to read.
Good luck on your trip, I will follow you from now on, and be reading more of your past travels. If you ever wanted to read any of my stuff, my Europe blog is at www.travelpod.com/members/jaredten and my current wordpress blog is at www.jt75.com
