To up and leave for a year. Dang it. I wanted to try settle down for a bit but have found myself the last few weeks wanting to up and go again.

I don't know what to do.

Do it Ben....before you have any tying commitments....

[Vanessa]

You mean leaving for another country? Why not? I'd love to do it myself.

Yes. I have been thinking about my options and have considered heading to a pacific island for a few months/half a year and then maybe heading through Asia or just heading over to South America.

Plenty of time for one final trip....you don't want to settle and then regret it! You can grow up when your 31!!

don't be silly, a lot easier than going to another county and it was only a few moons ago that you came back because you were missing home!

[reece(:]

Can I ask what you'll do on this island for a year?

Perfect time to go, no commitments. You are 30 Ben, not 70. Plenty time to be a grown up.

see how much you have grown up!,
don't keep putting age restraints on what you need to do by a certain age.
its not like you have a wife and kids to think about.

Exactly 30 is just a number, you won't feel any different to how you felt at 25 most probably.

Uruguay and Chile are the only two decent Souh American countries, don't go anywhere else in the continent.

..you should talk with Withano, he's going back to Uganda in the summer and maybe you could talk to him about voluntary work..?..if you think that would be your thing...
