Goals for 2012
1. save…ideally I’d like to save 10k with my next contract, so from March to the end of Feb 2013.
2. Visit Hong Kong and Macau. I’ve been dying to get here and this is the year. Even if it’s a 4-5 day trip, I want to do it this year.
3. Make it to all 3 of my best friends’ weddings this year. Living on the other side of the world makes this no easy task, and yes, it puts a huge damper on my saving and travel goals, but I really don’t want to miss anything. I’m making it to one for sure in Seattle next week!
4. One big trip to Turkey. Meet the parents, marvel at the Hagia Sofia that’s one of my favorite architectural designs ever, see Cappadoccia, and wherever else boo takes me.
I have travel fever so bad right now. I’m thrilled I”m going home for a month, but all i can think about is Vietnam and Bali and Palawan and Thailand again…I keep trying to figure out when I can do it all, but with all of these weddings, it’s 2013 at the earliest. I guess 2012 will be a little bit of an off year sandwiched in between two amazing years? Last year I went to 5 new countries, just about paid off my credit card bill and met my love. This will be a year of getting ducks in a row, keeping close with friends and family back home and then next year will be all about me…yoga retreat in koh tao, scuba certified in palawan and cruising around halong bay. 2012 will be an exercise in patience.
