Hi,

I am 23 year old lad. I have always lived in my quietish home area, with an old friend at the mo. I consider myself pretty bold for my age. I don't care to break the mould. I have been a self employed web designer for a year, I think big and have took on some good jobs. But never been fully satisfied still. I was not your school prefect type but usually in the higher groups and since then been into partying and the substances along with it. Had a good time, serioulsy some right laughs and wouldn't go back and change it, but now I have had my day of it! In recent times I have been very anxious, since the start of this year I knew I wanted something different, a big challenge. I can't just waste away around here?

I now have an around the world ticket flying out to Thailand on Christmas Day en route to New Zealand in March. I am selling my car and all these 'things', getting away from negative influences and embarking on something, which I probably don't realise how positive it is going to be for me. I just feel like I can't grow where I am at right now. What is anyone else's experience of travelling, leaving the bubble you grew up in and how it changed you?
