The second thing that really scares me of in traveling would be…ending it. That, after losing my passport, while I was traveling alone in a far away land with small amount of money left in my pocket.
Like most of exciting things in the world, my last trip was too running so fast that 15 days felt like a week. Where did my other week go? Although there were times when I felt that I missed home, travel-ending-blues still got me.
But luckily, I accidentally disorganized my trip and my family visits. So, after I came back from my trip, my family started their visits to my place.
The result is a hard goodbye and an exciting welcome home, although I didn’t get to cure my jetlag in a proper way, but its worth the time and tiredness.
So, moral of the story is…for you who wish to travel, you better make sure that there would be something interesting waiting for you back home. Believe me, it will help to take the blues away.
Here’re some ideas that you might consider:
1.Spare some money before you leave for the trip and spend that money as you come back. Nothing is better than get yourself a present.
2.Plan another big thing as you come back, say: joining a marathon with your friends or attending a music gig together.
3.Keep yourself busy with your traveling souvenirs, like: designing a postcard for your friends from your own traveling pictures or making a traveling scrap book, or photo albums.
And…what you should not do is…keep on comparing the places you visit with your hometown. As they say, the grass is always greener on the other side. So, let the memories of the vacation places stay beautiful by staying as memories.
After all, ending your vacations won’t be so bad when you have something awaits you at home :)
Ps: and that’s not including BACK TO WORK. Sorry to say, but there’s no cure for the suck-ness it brings! [aha!…unless you keep on thinking: I’m working my ass out for my next trip!]
