A survival story -
“Often I awoke drenched in cold sweat, fresh from dreaming of better places - a better time than the present. I longed to sporadically sell off every possession and leave the corrupt materialistic world that I had been birthed in. Obsession gripped me and at times my heart would race from even the faintest thoughts of Venetian canals, Parisian baguettes and crisp French Polynesian ocean air. Many times I had believed that all was doomed, and I, shackled - that my happiness and freedom would never return from this fake illusion of everyday life. But after my friends held an intervention, I began to seek help from Brandon. He advised that I surround myself with travel stories, future travel anticipation, and soon enough I began to feel a revealed hope once again.”
–Ailing traveler.

I certainly have the disease! I love travelling and meeting new people around the world. My mum already has trips planned for next year. I am home at the moment, so if you would like me to come and visit you, visit my website and fill in the form and let a new adventure be born.

I like you love to meet new people. Traveling to a new destination is something that I can never fill with something else. Where all is your mom planning on traveling to?

Mum has been on a cruise to Noumea, Tahiti, Moorea, Bora Bora, Muai and then Honolulu. She spent 3 weeks in Hawaii. I couldn't go with her because I was visiting someone else. Brandon, you haven't sent mum the photos of when I visited you. She has been anxiously waiting to see what I got up to.
