So on Sunday, I wrote this huge page on why I wanted to go back to travel writing. Unfortunately, my computer acted weird and got rid of the file. To make it brief, I once tried using World Nomads four years ago. There was a chance to practice travel writing in China. Granted, I didn't get the scholarship, but I want to try to find a way to travel. The dilemma? I would either have to go back to school, or find other alternative options in becoming a travel writer. I was never that college student that traveled out of the country to find herself, so I'm a late bloomer.
Doing things rationally doesn't help me at all. It makes me feel like a robot. I want to follow my heart again. Honest to God, I've only traveled throughout America. I've been to New York, Texas, Georgia, and Massachusetts. This is one of those few times in my life when I want (need) to throw caution into the wind. Even when I have traveled, I always was with my family. I need to branch out eventually. God, that sounds like a cop-out. There's a world for me to see out there, and I know I'm meant to do something grand. Is it to do charity work? Volunteer? Write a captivating story? I don't know. I can say in confidence that I watched a YouTube video about what you need to do to be a certified travel writer.
I can't let more opportunities escape my grasp. I won't let that happen.
