HI

I haven't taken the time to craft a nice first post for this blog. So here goes...


My name is Desiree, I'm 21 (22 this year but only once I hit July so let's just stick to 21 for now) and I was supposed to do an awesome South East Asia trip after graduating from Poly but I never got around to doing it. One day, I was feeling all upset about how at 21, I still hadn't done the trips I planned of doing, when my 17 year old "idealistic, I'm going to travel, I won't subject myself to a job I don't love, there's way more to life and I must not lose sight of that" self said WAKE UP. STOP WHINING. DO. 

So, I decided to start this blog as a first step. This is where I intend to write about future trips, trips I'm taking, have taken, am planning to take and am dreaming about. I want to keep a repository of my travel dreams (I wish I could find a less corny word but my vocabulary fails me..), my achievements and failures and look back one day and say "Hmm I didn't do too badly".

This evening, I booked air tickets for my first trip without family/a tour/my school. Just two other friends and myself. My dad is going to be pissed but let's cross that bridge when we get there.

For now, East Java awaits!
