Adventures in adventure planning

So I joined couchsurfers, which is an awesome network of travelers. Its amazing how many people are traveling the world right now. People who are gone for 6 months, 7 months, 11 months. Heck even a year and a half!
The more I think about this, the more excited I get. And I think im actually doing it the right way, I have no dates no itinerary. The only thing for sure is I go to Roatan January 1st.

Adventures in financial meltdowns

Iceland is declaring bankruptcy... well they would be if Russia wasnt bailing them out
Score one Marxism

Best past is.... we finally came to realize that maybe our jobs actually werent safe... after all there wont be much call for democracy promotion when the whole world socializes the financial institutions

Hello communism!

Adventures in adventure

So this blog was meant to coincide with my next big adventure, and I have finally begun the planning phase. Plus I put in my two months notice at work #1, so I'm kinda forced to now actually realize my dreams.

Dream #1: To be a beach bum.
How I will accomplish that? By moving to Roatan, a small (and I mean small, its basically a dot on google maps) island off the coast of Honduras, where I will work for a dive shop and earn my divemaster certification. The island is 29 miles long by 2 miles wide, and apparently is a very popular expat destination. Oh and gorgeous!

Dream #2: To teach English in Thailand
How I will accomplish that? By finally mustering the courage to go... so after my 6 week stint on Roatan, and possibly some time wandering central america, im going to go to Thailand!!
