Next plans

A trip to Thailand is going to have to wait, for at least a year.  Siiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.  I'm just not in a position, financially or in any way, to pack up and head out for a few months.  Oh well. it WILL happen.

But in March or April Marlon and his lady are heading to Peru for a month or so, and I'm going to try and join them.  I should be able to afford that, and with all of my friends living on the same block as me I'm sure my kitties will be well taken care of.

Then, in late May or so, I'm hoping to start exploring Canada more.  I finally have my G1 and plan to take driving courses over the winter, so when I'm eligible to get my G2 in May I hope to have enough to buy a cheap van and then I want to head west, and also north.  I went west only once ever, and honestly there isn't really anything to see in Saskatchewan or Manitoba.  But Alberta is beautiful, although I only spent time in Edmonton.  I'd like to see Banff if possible, but BC is where I really want to go.  I crossed through the Rocky Mountains only once, about twelve years ago, and that was too long ago.  I crossed over to Victoria BC for a weekend only, and that's the total of my BC experience.  Fuck that.  I want to get out there and see everything.  Then I want to go north and explore the territories, I've heard nothing but good things.

From there, me and my van will try to explore the US eventually, but depending on how long the cross-Canada adventure takes, that one may have to wait til next year.

It's funny how, in my life, I can only really feel like I have things on track and my life is in order if I know where I plan to travel to next.   Of all the things I could be addicted to, I think there's nothing better than seeing the world.
