Travelling for personal development

[Chadders]

Reflecting on my situation recently with my job and business. If by the end of the year we don’t get investment I will be selling my shares. Hopefully I’ll get between 50-60k

Job wise I’ve had it with the corporate world. Corporate jobs are just fucking bullshit to me now. I’m at the end of the road and I’m not going back. Rather be a teacher 

All being well we will get investment but if not I want to go travelling. Get a fresh start and new outlook. Develop in areas of my life that I’ve neglected. I got sucked into the corporate machine  

Does anyone here have any advice for travelling? Considerations? Anything worth looking into? 

Bless

Just go to mostly hostels i guess

and when you need some alone time go to an airbnb or hotel

you can also go to places with psychedelic or yoga retreats

go wherever you want

asia, americas, europe, africa whatever

it doesn’t really matter

Van life is a thing. Research it on YT.

I once met a Buddhist monk who quit his Wall Street job and traveled around the country in his van doing martial arts and massage therapy.

He had a bed and a tiny kitchen in his van.

Totally up to you and your values.

Personally travelling interests me very little. People think I'm crazy when I express little desire to travel, but that's just the social matrix trying to worm into my brain.

Travelling carries a huge cost, make sure you're travelling for the right reasons if you do decide to pursue it.

What countries did you like the most? My ultimate goal is to visit Nepal and maybe India but I want to visit other “easier” countries first so I can see how everything work.

Because it's less expansive, that it sounds exotic, and that he may have a kink for asian women 🤫

india, japan, vietnam, thailand, colombia, guatemala, mexico, israel etc were all fun

australia is great but a bit far and expensive 

nepal is also on my list

in some of those countries i’ve spent months

malaysia is mostly muslim so quite restrictive in some ways

[Chadders]

@Ramanujan Lol I’ve done enough grinding

[Chadders]

@PurpleTree Yeh I think staying in hostels is how I’m going to do it. Need that social element. I’ll be travelling alone but I want to meet new people

[Chadders]

@Leo Gura Van life sounds cool. I’ve seen some videos of people doing this in the Uk though it’s not easy as the laws are very strict. Can’t just rock up to a nature reserve and camp out in a van. Everything is private land and the road laws don’t permit overnight parking 

As for travelling around the world in a van maybe in the future I’d commit to that! I’ve never done actual travelling other than the odd holiday here and there so hostels I’ll start with

You have so many limiting beliefs. Please don't infect others with them. You ask about books all the time but maybe start to educate yourself about the nature of Reality and how the Universe works. How the mind works and how we have the power to change our circumstances. There's no outside world and it's all within us. It's all energetic and your emotions are energy in motion and the Universe is adapting to you depending on your state of being. Don't focus on the outside world look within. There's no escaping the rat race is simply a belief.

You will say you were born in a Thirld World country and how things are and so on and do forth. Doesn't matter. The Universe is unlimited and there are infinite potentials and possibilities.
