Wanderlust

Now is about that time in the year where I suffer from a severe case of wanderlust.
Exams are looming, revision is endless, the sun is out pretty much all the time (a pretty rare occasion here in Wales!). 
And I just want to be out there - exploring, travelling, meeting people, learning new languages, doing new things...

The world is full of endless possibility, and right now (as happy as I am here) I just long to experience it; live it.

Some put it down to stress - saying that the longing to be elsewhere will fade as soon as summer arrives, and school is done forever.
But those who know me are aware that I've always longed to explore. To fill my head with stories and memories; to experience a different culture - a different lifestyle - even if it's only for a short amount of time.

I'm not talking about leading a nomadic existence; I already feel as though I've 'found myself'. 
Greece showed me that you can travel without being a tourist, but also without giving up everything.

And that's what I long to do.
