Bucket List items 1 through 3

I am writing this while cruising at 26,000 feet on my way to Orlando, on a slightly bumpy flight. I love listening in on the conversations people have even though the people next to me are taking this time to sleep. Travel is so exciting, there are so many places to see and things to do. On this trip I’ll get to cross 3 things off my bucket list: visit Florida, go to Magic Kingdom, and go to Epcot. I’ll sign off for now, trying to save some battery life. If anyone out there actually reads my posts, have a fantastic weekend.

Life happens

Life happens and plans have to change. I should be writing this post from California but instead I’m writing it from the East Coast. I was looking forward to traveling but I had to cancel due to injuries received in a vehicle collision. Everything happens for a reason and I could have been stuck out on the West Coast and miss work. Canceling the trip to California was definitely a disappointment but I still have London to look forward to in August.

Why Start a Blog now?

Why start a blog and why now? To give the short answer, I love to write. In my almost 30 years of adventures, I have done and seen a lot. My next 30 years are going to be filled with adventures beyond my wildest imagination. Starting off with this year, I will finally get my passport and I’ll use it to go to Great Britain and Germany. After that, who knows where the trade winds will take me.

Now to give some information on why I chose this particular name for my blog.

Oxford English Dictionary defines wayfarer and musings like this:

wayfarer, a person who travels on foot.

musings, a period of reflection or thought.

The term wayfarer brings about a certain notion of romanticized travel, seeing the world in such a way that it becomes an intimate experience. I fancy myself to be a traveler, and really, aren’t we all? Granted not everyone travels by foot nowadays, but it’s still traveling. This blog will serve as the platform to share my thoughts or musings as it were on travel, food and life.

We are all stories in the end, so make it a good one.
