Todays Radvent Prompt is Travelling!
My favourite thing to do in the whole wide world.
I love travelling, seeing new places visiting family. (i have family in France, Japan, Brussells, Australia ... )
Yep i have them everywhere! :)
I've been to Japan 6 times and stayed there for 6.5 weeks for one summer holidays, and it was the hardest, but best time of my life. I got to the 3 week mark and was homesick like hell, i missed my mum so much!!!
But after that, it was amazing, i soaked up the culture, and how different life is, the people... funnily enough you start noticing the differences between all the japanese people! (they don't all look alike.. :)

I learnt that its good to be outside of your comfort zone in a new city where you are literally 'Lost in translation' you learn to survive by yourself, you learn your surroundings, your way around, and you learn the language really quick!!
If i was only able to take one bag to live out of....
I would take my camera for sure! (video camera too possibly..)
Tooth brush is a 100% must, with my Aquafresh tooth paste, deodorant too, i dont want to be stinky.
And fresh Pants, and the coolest t-shirts, and a note book and pens to doodle and write.
I did this in Japan, i bought a notebook, some funky pens... the stationary shops there are awesome!
I then wrote down, and drew pictures to make my own phrase book, i found i learnt to much quicker this way!
Oooh my Laptop and the internet so i could blog... by the means of a dongle or something if there wasnt any wifi. I'd also take Mike and the dogs if it was a possibility... failing that they would be in the Kennels getting some love from the lady who owns it, shes lovely :)
Im pretty comfy going long haul, not to the moon or anything, that doesnt interest me. lol
But like Australia would be on the cards if i wasnt so freakin' scared of the spiders there... ughhhh *shudder*
I want to go to more places in Asia, like China, Thailand, Singapore etc
And see a lot more of America, like New york, Washington, Kansas, pretty much the whole of the USA, i just wanna live there really haha!
The places i have been to already are -
Japan 6 times
USA- Florida 2 times & Vegas (North Carolina too, if it counts walking out of the airport to wait for people who are smoking? lol)
France countless times, my grandparents live there. 5+times
Teneriffe 2 times (its in the canary islands)
Majorca
Madeira
Egypt 2x
Tunisia
The places i want to visit... well i'll list the top 5 as there is too many :)

Vietnam
Rome
Los Angeles

Oh you are so fortunate to have been able to travel so much! I feel like my days of crazy travel (aka my early 20s) are over now ... I have roots, though I don't yet have kids, so perhaps I should try for one more before that happens. The trouble is, I want to go EVERYWHERE! :)
