And just like this, it's Monday again. 🙃
I often find that once I made the decision to travel and take time off or even quit my job (as I have done in the past!) somehow things seem to fall into place.
YES, I know you need money to travel and with the dynamic of rising living costs changing I understand that it is for a lot of people a luxury to do. But I also know that even you thought you can't afford it in the first place, once you make the plan, somehow you find a way to make it happen and there are so many different options for all kind of budgets...
I met a girl in 2010 while travelling around Australia and she is currently travelling with her son (single mum) from Germany to Australia via bus, train, car and flights.
She is travelling on a budget, but she once said that somehow things seem to fall into place once you make the conscious decision that you want to do this!
This week's photo was taken on Phi Phi Island in Thailand, a girl's trip back in 2018 I did with my best friend. She flew in from Germany and I from Australia and we did a week holiday together and it was just so good for the soul. To all the mum's out there - you also deserve some time to fill your cup 🫶! We spent a couple days in Phuket, a couple days on Phi Phi Island and a couple days on Ko Lanta. We relaxed at the beach drinking cocktails, did a cooking class on Ko Lanta right at the beach, a day trip to James Bond Island and enjoyed amazing Thai food all day long. 🥰
Phi Phi Islands (Koh Phi Phi) is a popular little island only 40 km south of Phuket.
If you were wondering, you would pronounce Phi Phi ‘Pee-Pee’, not ‘Fee-Fee’! This Island doesn't need an introduction anymore since Leonardo DiCaprio took care of this in 2000 with the movie The Beach. It's a touristy spot, it's fun, it's a good party spot and has amazing beaches worth to be in a movie.
Hope your Monday is wonderful, your week full of positive thoughts and you are planning your next getaway. Remember, I'm only a phone call or email away to help you with making those dreams a reality.
