My last week in Ireland!

So it's been a few days since I last blogged and not much has been happening apart from setting up my brand new website! It has taken me a really long time to get it the way I want it but its so rewarding to look at it knowing how much dedication went into it! I currently have my blog 'from India to New Zealand' divided up on my page so it will be easy for you all to follow my posts from place to place! I figured it would be a lot easier than being all thrown in together! I am also available for travel advice through my website which is open to anyone yearning take the leap! so get in touch with me!

Also forgot to mention that I got my business cards the other day! It only took forever for them to arrive but they were worth the wait! I chose my unique 'WorldTravellerz' logo picture for the cards (which was taken in San pedro, Chile last summer)and I am delighted with how they have turned out.. Oh let me show you...

Nice aren't they?

So as the title states, it's my last week in Ireland, well from tomorrow anyway, and I'm getting butterflies in my stomach! Just today I got a message from Eliza who so am travelling India with, telling me how great it is and it is not as scary as expected! What a relief! I'm dying to get going now and I think this week wil ll fly by! Tomorrow I will be going to Donegal with my mam for two nights! It will be nice to have a break away up there and a break away from my computer! Lol! Anyway I will keep you updated on how my week is going and in no time you will be reading posts from me In India! Just super!

Blog soon guys xx

Super Close to The Big Day!

Time really is flying! Yesterday I said goodbye to friends down the country and we chatted about my travels and what amazing experiences are about to come my way! I am really excited to be getting back on the road again but it certainly doesn’t come without its anxieties! Before each trip I get super nervous of the unknown something that quickly disappears after I have arrived at the said destination but nevertheless It’s still there at the beginning! They say that India is indescribable and you either love it or you hate it, but I’m kind of thinking I know the outcome already! I try to capture the culture of each country and as of yet I have not come across a country I have hated or just ‘not liked’ for that matter! India has everything I see in myself as a person and I think It will be a good match! The fact that the country is predominantly vegetarian suits me down to a T!

The spirituality of the culture certainly captivates me already form stories I’ve heard and most of all it is the birth place of yoga (have I mentioned that yet)! I started doing yoga a few years ago before and in between my travels! I loved it, but with not having the time to do it in a while I am really looking forward to properly relaxing in the moment, meeting new friends and making time for myself to chill out! Especially after the last two years of study! I am keen to get back to my old carefree self and leave my worries behind when I set off to India and I think that my choice to go there will be one of the best I’ve ever made!

The End Of An Era!

So the day has come when I say goodbye to my beloved Rosie aka my lovely pink car! It’s safe to say the money will come in a lot handier than the car especially with my plans to be away for such a long time! There seems no point in keeping her! I would rather someone else enjoy driving her! I hav also been looking into changing my flight to go as soon as next week! My travel mate Eliza will be arriving sooner than me and I thought why spend the extra days here, if I can change it then why not! It means I get to see more of India and it means Eliza won’t be waiting for me for too long! Who knows how it will pan out and I may have to wait until July 7th as planned bit for now I have my fingers crossed! Did I mention I passed the rest of my college exams! You could say that fits in with the title ‘the end of an era’ as of now I am finished in college forever! I won’t stay finished studying because we all know I have 6 weeks of that to go in India but I’m super excited about that! Yoga, come  at me! So for now I’m saying goodbye an parting ways with things and routines that have been in my life for the past two years! But I am super excited to be slowly returning to my usual backpacker self, the one I am most happier being! If only I could be one forever! Who says I can’t? The world has been, will be and will always be my oyster so why give that up! It won’t be in the near future that’s for sure!

Bring on the new era of my life!

ThreeWeeks To Go!

So tomorrow it will be 3 weeks till the day I leave! It’s all looking so real now! I even started packing my backpack! As I mentioned In my last post I did a shopping spree dedicated to travel essentials! Adding to that I recently picked myself up a flat travel money/bag for under my clothes (you can never be too safe), new earphones, a combination lock for my bag but thinking about it now I may get a pad lock as I am dreading the ‘combination’ stress in a situation where I need something quickly! I will bring the combo lock just incase! I also have added a light rain coat, small pack of travel toiletries, mini straighteners should I need them for my uncontrollable hair & a small bag of hair accessories/jewellery! All I need now is to pack last minute laptop, chargers &camera! To be super organised I am going to print off all my flight itineraries to have in my travel document case (a super handy gift I received in Canada)! I also have my little yellow book of vaccinations packed there just incase! After packing everything I mentioned before I was very surprised to see how much room I still had left in my backpack! I will try not let this encourage me to add more stuff! I’m sure I won’t! I hope so anyway! That’s all for now!

Indian Weather.. Hmmm!

So for anyone who has been to India around our summer time you will probably think I am crazy to go during their ‘Monsoon season’! And I probably am! Firstly it’s making it very hard to pack as I know it will rain a lot but at the same time it will be high 40′s temperature wise! How on earth do you pack for that! Looking at the Irish weather right now it’s giving me a head start on what to expect in India, on a good day I’m assuming! But nonetheless it’s not going to stop me exploring the vast country! I have tonnes of summer clothes to pack for the heat in most of the countries I will be travelling too but have made sure to pack closed shoes, rain coats and an umbrella for those unexpected showers! It isn’t the idea time to go to India although some people would disagree and say it is the best time as the country boasts vivid green scenery! Pure beauty! So if that’s what I am letting myself in for, then bring it on! Even if I am not fully prepared I’m sure I will learn as I go! And I will be keeping my readers updated regularly on the monsoon experience!

Travel Shopping!

Okay so yesterday was the day undecided to get my life in order and buy my much needed travel clothes! I only bought practical things that I really needed and the rest I hav in my very packed wardrobe! First things first considering I may be doing a lot of walking and 6 weeks of yoga I needed some sports wear! I bought penneys ‘converse’, ‘toms’ and two pairs of Capri leggings! I will team these with baggy by shirts and a sweater! I then bought two pairs of skinny trousers in orange and navy very good for covering up in India or even going out at night! Very comfortable and a bargain at 9.90! An obvious must buy was a travel towel which cost €4 and  is an amazing addition to your backpack! So efficient! Amongst these were a cream cardigan again for covering up or for night time, black ray ban style sunglasses and two pairs of sandals! Of course Iv added tonnes more stuff into the pile from my wardrobe! Denim shorts, t shirts, bikinis, sarong and a lot more! I will add a picture below! I shall update you on my progress soon!

What To Pack For 17 Months?

Okay so I’m getting to the point where I need to start buying bits and bobs for my trip and its so hard when your going to so many different counties,and cultures at that!

So for India  thinking linen trousers, yoga pants, leggings and scarves for covering up! Not forgetting shorts and tank tops for the beaches of Malaysia/Indonesia following this! Bikinis of course and summer dresses!Shoes – converse/dressy sandals/ flip flops and maybe pumps! Maybe a dressy dress or something for nights out but then again I can always buy these in India or Malaysia! Considering I may need a smaller size in clothes after 6 weeks of intensive 5am-8pm yoga training! Here’s to hoping!   Toiletries/ my SLR canon and laptop which I will be super protective of but it’s a must seen as I will be away for a long time! Probably forever if things go to plan I don’t tend to wear too much make up or none at all really when I’m away considering it melts off anyway and I will probably be tanned for the most part! Believe me iv started my pre tan already in the beautiful irish sun so no fake tan for me!  So that the basics and the rest is luxury so ill need to give this some thought! My back won’t thank me in the long run carrying around a super heavy backpack!  Back to the drawing board it is!

Plans For India!

So Iv decided on India as the first stop basically because Iv always wants to go and I never got the chance before! I will be travelling solo this time which is daunting especially with everything I’m hearing about female travellers in India at the moment but nonetheless  powering through!

Iv been on a few travel websites, my saviours really for any trip, and have been chanting to a few people I’m meeting on my travels! I will be meeting up with Eliza from Wales during the first leg of the trip and 4 weeks into the 10 week India trip will be meeting Raine from South Africa who will be taking part in the yoga teach training course in Rishikesh (home of yoga)!  It’s all very exciting but scary at the same time! Once I get through India I think I will be sorted! I don’t know why it’s scaring me so much after all, the ‘dangerous’ countries that are Brazil and Bolivia were not at all what people told me they would be! So once again I am making my won mind up! Everyone has different experiences at the end of the day and I’m determined to make mine incredible!
