The day of the trip has arrived!
I鈥檓 on the plane right now, actually!
Feeling very happy and grateful.
Indonesia will be the 25th country that I visit.
I had this arbitrary goal to visit 100 countries by my 30th birthday.
But I kind of gave up on this goal.
There is no need to rush things.
I just like to think about this for the underlying meaning of the goal:
Keeping actively traveling and making efforts to see as many places as possible!
I was thinking that as I鈥檓 very excited, the feeling of visiting the 25th country is completely different from the聽feeling before visiting the first country.
The unknown was stronger.
But for someone like me that wants to keep traveling and enjoys doing so,
One feeling needs to be cultivated:
The appreciation of small differences between places.
The little things that make each country and city unique!
And I鈥檓 reminding myself of this as I鈥檓 almost landing!
Speaking of which…
The crew just announced that we are very close and I need to stop using the laptop.
So blog post interrupted hahaha.
See you guys! Tomorrow鈥檚 post will already be written from a nice Balinese cafe close to the beach!!
