Next week I start my journey across the Pacific Ocean to Bangkok, Thailand. A place without a familiar face, but a place filled with mystery and excitement that will change the track of my life.

Everyday people ask me why I am dropping my whole life to travel to an unfamiliar country. But I don’t see this as dropping my life; I see it as gaining one. I dropped a job I didn’t love to follow a passion that I do, and that is gaining everything.

I am leaving America with the bag on my back, filled with enough clothes to last me 10 days, my computer, GoPro and a phone. I want to show everyone that you don’t have to be rich or famous to travel the world. I am an average gal that decided to take a leap of faith and jump across the ocean to start a life in Thailand.

My way may not be glamorous, but it will be nothing short of amazing. You just believe in yourself.
