Money is tight for me so I just bided my time and hoped that I could afford it when I got closer to my departure. time ticks over and I see that I have the $400 available just. I phone my travel agent and ask her to change my ticket. When she … Read how I did it…

How to travel Again end of 2009, beginning 2010
It took me
2 years
It made me
probably happy

How I did it: After my last trip to India, i decided I would go again in two years time. I haven't actually gone yet but i bought my ticket months ago now and all the other things I need for the trip are in place so there is not much that stop me from going. I will leave in 10 weeks time.At first I thought i would try to work and save as much money as possible. But working didn't work out for me. I decided to start a busness program and although I… Read how I did it…

How to buy a camera
It took me
6 months
It made me
ecstatic

How I did it: I researched widely. I spoke with photographers, and in the shop and on the internet to find out exactly what i should get and how much it would cost. And I wasn't in a big hurry which in my case really helped me end up with this.I didn't have the money to buy it retail but i needed it for a trip that is coming up in November. It was suggested to me that i check out ebay and when i did i realised that I could get a good saving on the reta… Read how I did it…

No More Sweets! (read all 13 entries…)
down again and now its time to go up again 1 month ago

This last 7 months I lost the weight and now I’ve put it all back on again in the last three months. I think i got down to about 60 or even less kgs. Now i am 67 which is only 1 kg less than my maximum healthy weight.

I have to get down again becuase i need to be able to fit into a pair of trousers within six weeks.

So now its time to be disciplined again.

I’ve book two more plane tickets.
