Dream V Reality
Hey folks!
So I have a chance of taking voluntary redundancy from work (I’ve applied for it and just waiting on confirmation whether I will get it or not)
My wife and I have travelled many many times in Europe, we’ve been to North Africa and ridden the dunes of Erg Chebbi. We’ve shipped the bike into Iceland and travelled round the island for a couple of weeks and we’ve always dreamt of eventually giving it al up one day to go travelling “proper”.
We’re not loaded with cash, but the funds from this redundancy can give us the finance to actually live the dream. Riding east from the UK through Europe and beyond, The Stans, Russia, Mongolia et al. Or more recently with thought about riding the Pan American Highway all the way down to Ushuaia.
I’m also thinking that being the wrong side of 50, I’ve got a good job I enjoy, a decent pension and maybe thinking am I getting cold feet, now the dream is quite possibly a reality?
Those of you who has packed it in and followed your dream, what made you take the plunge?? Any thoughts or advice appreciated!
Thank you
Gav & Jack
