Homeward Bound!!

The world is round and the place which may seem like the end may also be the beginning. “I see my path, but I don't know where it leads. Not knowing where I'm going is what inspires me to travel it.”

As I sit here in Bangkok thinking back to what the past year has brought to me and thinking about what might be in store for my future, I cant help but shead one too many tears. What I have seen and done this past year I will carry forever with me through life not only as a past memory but as a great learning experience. I am ready for whatever it is tomorrow may bring and I will meet it with open arms. If I have learned anything this past year it is that life is what you make of it. You may have nothing or you may have everything but somewhere in between all that you make a choice to live whatever it may be that life has handed you. When life gives you lemons make lemonade.

As for my family I want to thank you for the support and love you gave me through my entire journey without them this chance to see the world would not have been possible and I will remember that always and forever.

As I have said before, "Tomorrow is a mystery. The only thing we can do is face it with resolve. We move forward, always forward and into what's next. We make a choice. We act on that choice. And all that's left is to live and hope"

I have met so many amazing people along the way and I wish the very best for everyone. As for Kells, yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end but somewhere in the middle we've become the best of friends. As your folks always say a true friend for life!!

I know this is sounding like a final signoff, and internationally speaking it is but stay tuned for one last update with the final pictures from thailand. (as soon as i get home and can afford to use the internet haha)

Koh Tao

Picture TIme!!

-17 °C

OK so here I am on Koh Tao which is a fantastic small island. I am falling in love with the culture here and Im still in denial that Ill be home in one week. This blog will be short and sweet I promise with loads of pictures. My experience on this island began very low key spending countless days lounging on the beach and by the swimming pool, while going to eat great cheap local food and drinks. After of bit of persuasion from Kelly I signed up for a Open Water Scuba Diver course and yes as everyone could have predicted I'm hooked. I cant wait to do another as soon as possible which will hopefully be tomorrow. The underwater life is facinating being full of color and life and has made me itching to get back down there and see more!! As for the pictures I threw a few in from New Zealand and the rest are from Thailand. Hope you Enjoy!!
