Building on the momentum of last year’s self-discovery journey, 2018 is dedicated to achieving a healthy balance between career and travel adventures.
Embracing the Full-Time Life (for Now)
While the allure of freelance independence remains strong, the stability and learning opportunities offered by my current agency position are undeniable. This year, I prioritize full-time employment, leveraging the company’s remote work policy to fuel my travel aspirations.
The Monthly Escape: A Travel Manifesto
The core objective of 2018 is to embark on a foreign adventure every month. Weekend getaways, strategic use of bank holidays and personal days, and the aforementioned remote work policy will be instrumental in achieving this ambitious goal.
Financial Feasibility and Overcoming Challenges
While mindful of the financial constraints, I’m confident that my budgeting skills and secure income will allow for this monthly travel endeavor. The biggest hurdle lies in identifying suitable destinations – fortunately, a backlog of long-awaited adventures awaits exploration!
Conquering Burnout: Embracing the Long Haul
Recognizing the potential for travel fatigue, I approach this goal with a realistic perspective. Similar to a New Year’s resolution, the challenge lies in long-term commitment. My hope is that by persevering through this year, travel will become a seamlessly integrated part of my lifestyle, fostering a lasting positive impact.
Travel Blogging: Embracing Imperfections
Just like many bloggers, I grapple with the pressure to create perfectly crafted content. However, this year, I prioritize sharing experiences over meticulous detail. By offering a glimpse into my monthly adventures, I hope to inspire others to embrace their own travel dreams.
The adventure begins! While the research phase is currently limited to a few exploratory searches on Skyscanner, expect a flurry of travel posts to follow throughout the year.
