Challenge me blogging world!

Aside form three (really shitty) blog posts for an assessment in Uni, this is all very new to me… why pick it now then you might wonder? It’s a bit late to be honest. I intended to start a blog and write about a goal that i set myself last year which involved lot of travelling and ‘finding myself’ – I know it’s a bit of a cliche but theres a bit of truth in it. anyway I’m going off track, point is I never ‘got around to it’ mainly because I’m lazy and partly because I was worried that no one would read it… I mean there is probably not many of you reading this anyway. Last year I really did have an adventure of a lifetime, an Aussie living in London with a goal of seeing a different country each month – I started with Rome, Italy, in January. A magnificent museum of a city, then ventured onto Dublin, Ireland where I drank way too much guinness and still believe that the Guinness factory was a little less exciting then everyone made it out to be. From there I went onto Copenhagen, Denmark – beautiful city, what did I learn about myself in this country? that you should probably not eat a hash cookie for the first time when you are in a foreign country, alone… unless of course you want to genuinely believe that your hostel room won’t have enough oxygen to sustain you overnight since the windows don’t open and you will be dead by the morning for sure and you can’t even say goodbye to anybody because you forgot your charger and there is no other possible way to charge your phone in the whole world… sooo moving on, the fourth month I was in Amsterdam, The Netherlands let’s just say I held myself a little better when I was here or maybe it seemed that way because everyone else was on a way higher level than me. After Amsterdam it was off to the beautiful Edinburgh, Scotland, I loved this place, the Haggis and all! After this it was Blur of getting my Aussie glow back in The Canary Islands, sailing in Turkey, eating Foie gras in the the South of France, Sleeping in a car To try to see the Northern Lights, and not actually seeing them, getting lost in a Bavarian Village so far from the hotel, and finishing the year in Poland – WITH FALLING SNOW! Can I just say, I underestimated this country…. How wrong I was. It was fabulous, if you haven’t been go! So with all of that adventure last year and having to do grown up things this year, I have come up with a new goal for myself for the year. This year my goal is to do something challenging, either mentally or physically each month. I have January sorted, I’m going to learn how to do a Rubix cube… But from there I need some help, that’s why I’m turning to you… What can I do next month? I’ll keep you posted on my progress with the rubber cube… wish me luck!
