Making Plans

Posted on the 08 September 2012 by Accordingtoamber @sgwennu

You all may remember that I mentioned a little while back that I was intending to go to Morocco this October! Well, I'm having second thoughts about doing that - despite pretty much having everything planned and booked, and really really wanting to go. But let me tell you why, and hopefully you'll be able to let me know if you think I'm being silly or not at the end of it. 
Pinned Image A friend of mine, Mr.R, recently moved to Thailand to be an English teacher! He's having the time of his life, and said I should come visit him at some point in the distant future. Sure thing.

At the end of October my dearest friend, Mr.G, who I've known for years is going to Australia on a two-year Visa to work for some mining corporation. (I know not the details.)

Everyone is abandoning me for warmer weather. *insert forever alone meme here*


So, I was thinking - how about I go out and join them? I'm going to get a RTW ticket, and here's my planned travel itinerary. 


  • Fly into Cambodia. Volunteer programme with Original Volunteers.
  • Fly out to Perth, Australia. Visit Mr.G. Drink wine and laugh lots.
  • Fly out to Christchurch, New Zealand. Take in the sights, drink coffee. Love life. 
  • Fly back to Sydney, Australia. Behold the glorious Opera House. Search for 42 Wallaby Way.
  • Fly to Bangkok, Thailand. Travel down south to visit Mr.R. Live like a backpacker. 
Okay, it's a bit repetitive, But it means I get to visit everywhere I want to, in the cheapest way possible. I basically found an amazing flight deal, and it would be insanity to turn it down. That doesn't mean it's not going to be a pretty expensive trip. // I'm pretty devastated at the prospect of having to delay a trip that I was so set to go on. After putting it off for so long, because tbh I was just afraid to do it, and now coming so close to going - I want to be illogical and go anyway, despite the expense.
So, question is. To satisfy my burning wanderlust, shall I go to Morocco anyway, or stay and put the money towards the big trip?
