Travelling Swift

Stories from a Single, White, Idiotic, Female, Traveller

Is this all there is? If not which way do I go?

A question asked by so many and answered by millions, none of which I got around to reading. This is a story about being afraid, and taking a massive jump to find out what else there is in life.

Don't be content with returning home late from work each night, spending more time away from your loved ones to make enough money to spend time with them. It's all the wrong way around. Don't make ironing and cleaning responsibilities of your life, otherwise you get snowed under with irrelevant duties.

Take time to do what you want, with who you want. The house, the money is nothing special, but the person next to you is.

This site is a collection of emails from my four years of travel. Leaving a life behind and trying to start a new one. Can't say how well I'm doing at it yet, but that's not to say I'm not trying everyday to live a life with the right attitude to living as best I can.

Emma.
