DREAM NOW TRAVEL LATER

As we all know, these past few months have been crazy and difficult for many of us. Our world has been hit by a pandemic that has been causing a lot of pain to a lot of people. Stress, anxiety, and depression are things that most people are struggling with right now.

This quarantine is affecting not only the economy but our mental health as well. We want to go out, we want to see our friends and family, we want to travel… but we can’t. For everyone’s health and safety, we have to stay home.

One thing we can do, though, is dream! We can dream of what we will do after this pandemic: what changes we will make in our lives, which people we will want to spend more time with, where we will want to travel, etc.

I wanted to write this post because I know many of us are struggling right now. I want to remind you that, even though it may not be permitted to travel right now, it’s always permitted to dream. Make a list of destinations you want to visit, look through your old travel photos, learn a new language, revamp your bucket list with new challenges. Dream about things that make you happy and excited. I am here to share all my quarantine dreams and I hope it inspires you to do the same.

New Projects I am Currently Working on

– This travel blog. I stopped writing for about a year because I was very busy traveling, but I am back with so much content and I am dedicated to posting a new article every Sunday. Hope you guys enjoy them!

– Learning Swahili. I already speak 3 languages fluently but I want to learn many more. Trying to learn Swahili is a big challenge but it’s been very fun so far. It will definitely take a while though.

– Starting my own travel agent/ consultant business. I am working hard at that, so stay tuned for more details!

In conclusion, I guess what I’m trying to say with this blog post is to “dream now, travel later”. During hard times, we need to keep dreaming. It’s so important to make plans for the future and have things to look forward to. For me, it’s travel.. but for you, it might be something else. Any reason is good to dream.

I hope this inspires you to revamp your bucket list and make travel plans. Just know that things will get better eventually and the world will open up to us once again. In the meantime, Mother Earth is taking a break and healing. We will all come out of this pandemic stronger and more caring humans. 

Let me know in the comment section what your dreams, plans, and bucket list items are.
