MY BIGGEST DREAM!

By March 11, 2013March 13th, 2013Travel

Guess what?!

Remember when I left everything behind to pursue my dream of traveling the world? I gave everything away, said “auf wiedersehen” to my friends in San Francisco, and was off on my sailing adventure through Mexico!

I had an absolutely amazing time, but I still had much of Central America and South America to explore before heading onto Africa and to the Himalayas. I was traveling through Panama last month when I had to receive an emergency appendectomy and returned to the States to recover. This wasn’t exactly in my plans, but it won’t stop my dream of traveling the world, especially now that I’m all healed up!

Want to know my BIGGEST DREAM? The absolute biggest dream I’ve ever wished for is to travel around the world for the next 6 months, all expenses paid, and at the end of it, have money left over to create my start-up, which would connect people all over the world to achieve their dreams in an unprecedented way!

I have fantastic news! I have an opportunity to win a contest that would pay for my travel around the world for the next 6 months + give me $50K at the end as seed money to begin my start-up!

This is how I fel about this contest! I literally jumped up and down for 30 minutes shrieking even knowing that it existed!

    This is so crazy because…when I was in Ethiopia volunteering my appendix was starting to go. I flew home (on schedule) and two days later it pop’d. What are the odds?

    • Jacqueline says:

      Wow! So, your appendix burst? Luckily, I made it to the hospital in time. Were you in the hospital for a long time? It’s great that you were able to get home!
