My goal in life is to live... and to travel.
There's been enough death in my life for me to realize that life is not about "things" but experiences and trying to be content with who I am as a person.
I go to shopping centres when I have to but there's not much there aside from the odd bit of computer gear, music, books and movies that I want. My real love is travel. But its more than a love, it's a passion. I hate hotels because you never meet people and big hotels tend to be the same all over the world. I like backpacking and staying in youth hostels. I travel on my own because I like to meet people from all over the world and travel with them and talk and drink and smoke hash. I love learning about other cultures and being exposed to their art, history and architecture. I find every time I go overseas I find that human beings have more things in common than we have things that divide us.
And travelling like this (in most places in the world) only costs me about US$500 a week.
I leave on my next trip on November 25 for seven weeks and I can't fucking wait. I fly into Amsterdam where I will chill out for a few days before heading by train into Eastern Europe through Germany. I'll be back in Amsterdam for New Years Eve before flying out to New York and then Las Vegas before returning home to Australia on January 16. One way, circumnavigating the globe.
So, aside from owing my own house, which I already do, if I could have a guaranteed US$1000 a week that would be enough income for me. I'd never stop travelling.
