I’ve wanted to do this (again) for ages. I did it once; I called out of the job I had at the time that I hated. We decided to drive into Florida. I think we did something innocuous like go to the mall and see a movie. I’m pretty sure we saw The Blair Witch Project. We were both dressed in nice work clothes, so it seemed more fun and spontaneous somehow.

Life is so bloody monotonous, just feel some days to go on a roadtrip or just go out, or get out there .Go somewhere write a book on my experiences. Sleep in huts, hitchhike, feel the wind on my face while i ride the bike.

Got one semi-planned 1 week ago

A friend of mine is supposed to be coming to visit in December, and rather than sit around my house we’ve had the idea to just drive somewhere.

From here in the midlands in the UK it should really be possible to get to a huge number of places in the 3-5 days we’ll have.

I’d like to go to at least one place out of the country, even if it’s just France or Ireland for a while, but we’ll see where the roads take us. :D



I think I might do this soon. 2 weeks ago

I think if I just buy a map, my boyfriend and I can get in the car and just start driving west.

This is something all free spirits want to do, as one myself I would; but all that CO2! Carbon footprint would be MASSIVE! Maybe on a bike? :)



Untitled 2 weeks ago

Oh my goodness. This website has officialy changed my life. It is like I need to see that other people want to do something before I realize I want to do it too.

I dont know where I am going and I dont care when I get back. it represents total freedom. I want to get a van and a best friend and maybe a dog and sell poetry to get gas and food money and just drive untill I get to an ocean. Then swim?

Hope my first check will get me somewhere :)
