Thus the Journey Began!

So I quit my job and planned to spend time traveling the Far East. I faced this decision with some apprehension, my ex-colleagues called me mad but my mind was made up.  The days quickly ran out of the hourglass: the movers took my furniture to a new apartment, a new owner drove off in my car, I wore my suit and tie to my farewell dinner and it was all over. Grabbing only some clothes, my MP3 player and my camera – my most valuable possession… in fact, my only valuable possession – I stood on the threshold of the exciting unknown, my passport and one-way ticket in hand. Little did I know at the time what adventures were in store for me over the next 7 months that saw me treading through jungles, on dirt roads, up mountains and volcanoes and down rivers in places whose reality I never even suspected existed. It is these stories I want to share with you in my blog, every time I look back with nostalgia upon that time and try to organize my photo memories.
