Hi there! So this will be my first thread post in a while, but after breaking up with my boyfriend and moving back home, I am entertaining the idea of traveling again.
I remember around this time last year being super excited about it and having everything planned out. As life gave me a different situation to deal with though, I had to put those plans on hold. I am now between jobs and am contemplating travel again but it's actually a little daunting. I am 18 and currently live with my parents, and they care a lot about me. I'm sure they wouldn't be thrilled to hear about my aspiration to become a dirty hobo and ride the rails and hitchhike with strangers. They just want me to get a job and buy an apartment but thinking about life 'out there' makes me feel a way that nothing else does. I have this incredible thirst for adventure and I want to go out and see what there is to see instead of staying in one place and working a 9-5. Does anyone remember when they first started out how they dealt with the fear of the unknown?
