Take part in our travels
Take part in our travels
When our departure date moves closer, I feel how my nerves sparkle with glowing. I am not the guy who stays with dangerous possibilities - after all, I did a lot of daring things during my time (jumping out of an airplane, flying an airplane, climbing the Nevis Peak without a guide and so on).
No, I'm not afraid of being hurt. I am nervous that I don't survive the course. I am nervous when I get to a point where I don't have a clean, comfortable bed or warm, flowing water every night and lets my desire to go away. I am worried that I will miss my sisters with which I have always shared a city.
I'm worried that life from my backpack will not "free" me as it should be. I'm worried that I just want to come home.
And that's why I would like to talk about an idea that I heard a few weeks ago by a close friend, Priya. She told me about a couple she knew, who published the travel route of her three -month honeymoon and invited her friends and family to visit her on the way. Their long honeymoon should be interrupted by visits by close friends and family members to offer them the best of both worlds.
I have been told several times that I can count myself lucky to be on this trip. Friends, colleagues and relatives have often told me that they are jealous of our plans or that they want them to spend two weeks on Fiji, Tahiti or Brazil or at any other of the fantastic places that we hope to reach.
So here is my suggestion: if you know me or Peter (or even do not know and we can confirm that you are not a psycho), we invite you to spend a week or two with us wherever we go.
That may sound like a sneaky and bizarre idea that better suits the script of a Zooey-Dschanel film, but we are serious. If you always wanted to go to one of these places, how about if you use us as an excuse? Of course you don't have to spend all the time - a few meals would be at least nice.
We will be in the South Pacific in August, September and October and will most likely be in South America from November. We are currently trying to convince Peters father to visit us in Bolivia.
He always wanted to see it - mainly because of Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid - but is not sure whether he can take the precautions. Well, the thing is, he can take the precautions. And if you always wanted to visit Bolivia or Argentina or Peru and read this now, then you can also take the precautions.
Peter and I are not "happy", as so many people say, and we are certainly not rich (a former teacher and a freelance writer are hardly any sample examples for wealth), but we still do this crazy and great thing. We really hope that some of our friends, family and acquaintances also choose a crazy thing and come to visit us on the other side of the world.
We are 100% serious. If you only think that you could consider it, contact us H . If I can't come home, maybe a piece of home can come to me. Come and take part in our travels!
