The Road Trip....

75 hours driving
over 6500 kms travelled
3 1/2 weeks living out of my car & tent, somehow i spent two nights in a $2 million mansion. I caught my first waves, i surfed over 20 different breaks- twice i shared that experience with dolphins, i saw over 300 pieces of Andy Warhol art in two hours; made friends with a spider had a snake next to my tent. Partied with 4 German backpacking girls who spoke almost no English - i speak no German but it didn't matter one bit - we partied like nothing before. i visited pubs on my own, i learnt to really spend time with myself & i forgot about all the trivial things that bothered me before i left.

I fell in love... twice

I had a near death experience yesterday, a real one!
I remembered fun times i shared with my mum before she passed away, i cried & i laughed - for the first time in my life i opened myself up to anything...

and i'm all these memories and more better for it.
