When my girlfriend suggested we take a lengthy vacation, I thought it was a good idea.  However, I wasn’t aware of what she had in mind.  She wanted us to put our money together, rent our condo out, quit our jobs and go on a year long excursion.  I was really hesitant about this, but when she informed me that she was going, with or without me, I was in.  We have been traveling for six months now and I’m not sure when we’ll go home.  Flashpacking is more fun than one can imagine.  You don’t have anything to worry about other than experiencing the moment.
