One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started to travel alone.

I was lazy to plan, so usually i go with people who do all the planning. Then It all happen suddenly, I want to go to Japan (The land of rising sun). Nobody available. I was determined to make it. So, I've decided to traveled alone. When I stared planning, It was bit scary and confusing (both in terms of money and plan). Booked everything.

A day before my flight, still I wasn't sure how it is going to be. Its like a birds first flight.

After 7 hours of flight I landed in Tokyo. There was a middle aged lady in immigration, stamped and smiled.

That moment sparked everything.

I traveled quite a few places after that, but that's the trip changed everything.

The people I met during that travel, the locals, the strangers, the ups and downs, got sick, getting lost and end up having tea in a strangers house.

Everything changed me, So that's the start of everything. If I haven't taken that trip, probably I wouldn't even join the travel forums.
