I am sitting at the airport in Melbourne with a slight hangover from our last night on Brunswick street and am thinking about the next six weeks. Tonight after a ten hour flight I will be arriving in Bangkok where I am going to stay a couple of days just to prepare the next adenture: a ten day meditation retreat in a buddhist monastery. Yes, me, Theresa, Ms. 'I can't even stop talking for 10 min otherwise I am going to explode', will sit silently meditating for o...

time is ticking. I have only a couple of weeks left until my journey is over... I am going to leave Australia in a couple of days and the last part of my trip is six weeks of South East Asia. Six weeks is so short, compared to 9 months and yet far more than most of the people out there have for their holidays for more than a year.

Since a couple of days we are cruising up the East coast of Australia and I start realising how this journey has changed me already. I can tell that I think a lot more about my destiny and happiness than I did before this trip. But this is what this whole journey is also about, besides visiting all those amazing places, right?
