Hello Everyone.
I am not sure if anyone has been waiting for a next chapter in the Blog. I have to admit I have not been in my most creative mood. In fact I am have been more destructive mood, so decided to let some time for things to settle down and then rise up like a phoenix bird
And while a phoenix bird represent air and fire, and being myself an earth person, I needed water to complete the 4 Classical Elements in pre-Socratic times.
So as you can see in the picture, I have added the 4th element by taking a diving course. As you can see, I was able to survive the experience.
So my preparation to the Australian journey is still progressing. Having said all this, the preparation has not gone as expected. Firstly I suffer an information overflow, I got the 1200 pages Lonely Planet travel guide, and I couldn't even decide where to start with. Secondly, as I mentioned earlier, my mood has not been the greatest, and in that low level of enthusiasm I got doubts. In one way, I wanted to to the trip, on the other way, I felt and feel that I am not preparing it enough to make it worthy, again on one hand I felt it was the type of travel you wouldn't want to do it alone, but on the other hand, either I do it alone or I won't do it.
All the questions from people about the trip, that I couldn't answer because I didn't had the time, or the questions "are you doing the trip alone" only made my mind wander in all directions.
All these time, since I didn't have the flight booked there was a light of doubt, some days brighter than other. But this tonight, after finding a solution of a dilemma of dates vs. destinations, I found a solution and I went for it.... So the flight is finally booked. Flying to Sydney on the 8th of November, and coming back From Melbourne on the 5th of December. The Kuala Lumpur option on the way back is no longer an option, so I will leave the Petronas for another trip.
And I got the tentative plan for Australia, (pending the confirmation or not if whales are visible in the Fraser Island around this period). I have to thanks specially the Miralles Salvador's travel tips, as well and many other trips and advices from people. The plan is still under construction, in order to build a list of options and possible plans to make the trip a life worthwhile experience, but it has to be kept flexible.
- Sydney
- Cairns.
- Urulu
- South-Melbourne.
Extra details of What, Where and When would need you stay tuned to the WWW.
As a proof of truth that the flight is booked here are the details of the flight, including the details for the seats I chose.
