Good Bye South Asia, SEA Here We Come!

164_6445-4.JPGI’ve felt kind of reflective lately, which usually happens around times of transition. It’s the holidays, the end of this year, my transition from the first half of my 20s to the second half, the end of the South Asia portion of our trip, as well as the five-month mark of this whole thing. Relevant to this blog, I’ll summarize what I’ve been thinking about those last two topics. South Asia has been great. Exploring India has been incredible, “vacationing” in the Maldives was unbelievable, and trekking Nepal was fantastic. Thinking over everything we’ve done in the past four months is simply astounding. Even just thumbing through photos from the past four months silences me with a gratitude and thankfulness that we’ve been able to do everything we’ve done. It’s been a good time and I’m going to miss the places and experiences. Now, after a month in Europe and four in South Asia, we’re on to South East Asia. I’ve been wanting to travel around SEA for a long time. Although I’ve visited once, I’m ready to delve into this beautiful and historically-rich part of the globe. The region contains some of Joylani and I’s most anticipated destinations and we’re ready to begin Phase III of our trip: SEA.
