Since I started earning my own money, which was a good 3 years ago, I began with my list of places to go to. I went to different parts of the country, mostly beaches, to make up for my lack of travel and to immerse myself in different cultures as well. Surprising as it can be, you might be surprised that with my 3 yrs worth of earning, not one single penny has gone to international travel. Yes, you read it right. I haven't been out of the country with my own money because of too many things. First, I keep thinking that I may not have enough money. Second, I'm too scared to travel alone just for the experience. I guess I've watched too many movies to have this kind of thinking, I'm scared of checking in to a Hostel and waking up the next day about to be butchered or murdered.
