After keeping it a secret for sooo long, the zip covering my mouth can be unzipped. I will now tell the world of my 2012 RexyEdventures travel plans that will be taking place this year! Off to SE Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and USA! I cannot wait! I announce it to all my family, friends and the travel community over my blog. I\u2019m giddy. I\u2019m excited. I\u2019m awesome! All day I\u2019m bouncing around with a smile from ear to ear and on this day, it\u2019s certainly a NEW YEAR\u2019s DAY!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Day-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"516\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Day-1-516x600.jpg\" alt=\"Ed of RexyEdventures, about to start traveling the world\" class=\"wp-image-3345\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Day-1-516x600.jpg 516w, https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Day-1.jpg 711w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 516px) 100vw, 516px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Day 2 \u2013 Monday 2<\/strong><sup><strong>nd<\/strong><\/sup><strong> January 2012<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I receive my paper copies of my RTW Tickets in my hands.

What I&#8217;ve been reading finally makes sense\u2026I will be going to these places. Bangkok! Vang Vieng! Siem Reap! Hoi An! Singapore! Panang! Everywhere!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I make my travel new year resolutions. No alcohol until I go travelling \u2013 three full months (sob sob)! Tone my body up to look good for travel photos (ha ha), try to do a photo-a-day challenge to symbolize travelling, backpack around Britain, and ensure my travel planning goes smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Will I keep to them?

I travel down to Leicester, where I work at my own pace. I think about family. Will they be okay while I\u2019m gone on my travels?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arriving back, I sort out some of my belongings. I am moving to another place this week to help cut costs and sort out bills before I go. It\u2019s a long arduous process and I throw out or give to charity a huge portion of my belongings. I can\u2019t exactly carry everything in my apartment in one rucksack on my travels can I? <br \/><em>(See also: check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprofessionalhobo.com\/the-ultimate-packing-list-for-full-time-travel\/\">what to pack for full-time travel<\/a>)<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I find my old I love Munich T-Shirt.

I try making him stay behind at a meeting that morning but the meeting runs late and we are kicked out of the room. I try catching him at lunch but food calls me. I try catching him all afternoon but computer issues catch him. I try catching him in the kitchen but I spy a Yorkshire Tea.

I feel a sense of trepidation, relief, amazing, very nervous, and excited and also a sense of loss.
