Something's brewing

It's been a long time since I've posted on here. I guess when I stop travelling, I stop posting. I shouldn't though.........................stop travelling that is!

I've been suffering from itchy feet for a while now but haven't been able to do anything about it. Well, I did make a short trip to a nice hill station in Karnataka in India in March, but it was just too short and came in between a horrendously busy time at work, and hence other than a breather (and a weekend getaway) it wasn't much else.

How often have we read "Travel! You can always make money. You can't always make memories". But don't you need money to be able to travel?? That's the darned part! Christopher Mckindless in "Into the Wild" makes it seem so easy. But it's not!

So that would explain this long hiatus from my last backpacking trip Work, earn, save, travel, repeat! That's how I go about it! And maybe that is the best way. It brings more zest to the travel, a sense of accomplishment and a feeling of "I have worked for this!"

But it's been more than eight months now and something had  to give. Maybe I have something planned albeit a little different. It may come as a surprise but I'll wait before I tell you what it is! Whatever it is though, something's definitely brewing!!

I'll see you in two months!

Cheers!
