Getting ready to go travelling is a strange experience. You write out check list after check list. You go over the trip in your head. Will it be succesful? Will I miss out on any big events at home while I'm gone? There seems like so much to take care of, vaccinations, visas, money, clothes, backpack. Travelling at the moment seems to be a right of passage for young people in Ireland (How long this will last, Im not sure) and even though we all know friends and relations who have done the exact same trip before us, you cannot help but be nervous when you are travelling to the other side of the world.
