One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I slept in a tent on 4500m on my way to Machu Picchu, went Piranha-fishing in the Amazon, wine tasting in Mendoza and beer tasting at the Oktoberfest. I walked over the glaciers of Patagonia down to the end of the world. I jumped out of planes and off bridges, danced Tango in Argentina and drank Caipirinhas on the Copacabana. I surfed on Hawaiis North Shore and climbed the Stairways to Heaven. Saw Kelly Slater kook out at Pipe, swam with Turtles and Dolphins and watched the New Years Eve firework in Sydney. I sailed in the City of Sails, climbed volcanoes and searched for the Hobbits. I partied with Elmo at the Sevens, hitckhicked in a police car and flew over the Southern Alps (in the cockpit, because that's just how I roll). I roadtripped all over Australia, decided to move to Melbourne, slept in a swag under the stars in the middle of the Outback and watched the sunrise at Uluru. I tasted the secrets of Nimbins bakeries and learned fluent Swedish (almost) from my supersnygg roomates while stuck in a hostel room during a Cyclone. I went diving in the Great Barrier Reef, gambled in Macaos casinos and ate my way through the Hong Kong dumpling selection, got invited to a strangers wedding in India, explored the entire European railway system and realized that the day I stop traveling will be the day I stop living.
