I want to travel. To be free to explore all day, pack a bag with some food and water and a jumper and just wander for the day. I want to not worry about exams, bills, charging my phone, I just want to get up in the morning and go, meet who I meet, go where I go. Eleutheromania is a greek word, meaning ‘an intense and irresistible desire for freedom’, so I guess that makes me an eleutheromaniac.
Well in 124 days, at the end of June, my school education will be finished. 7 years at primary school, 5 years at secondary school and 2 years of sixth form, I will finally be done. I can travel and work and do whatever I want to do. Be free. But first I have the exams, the worry, the revision and pain because despite my eleutheromania, I do also have academic ambitions; to be a psychologist. I’m going to have a year out, to feed my hunger for travel and freedom, just before I throw myself back into yet another long stint of education.
My plans? Thailand, Senegal, USA, Cambodia, Malaysia, Madagascar, Venezuela, The Galapagos Islands… There are so many options, I’m over-whelmed. All I know, is I’ll go to everywhere before I’m finished on this Earth… That’s a promise.
So, are you up for it? Because I’m going to need some support, and I think you need some too… Let’s do this, together.
Where in the US are you planning on visiting?

Everywhere really! I really want to go to Yellowstone National Park and the north west like Washington and Montana, but I’ve never been to the south either… I’ll just go where the wind takes me!
