What I decided to do after I turned 18

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Six days ago I turned 18, for the first time in my life I am an adult. Before I turned 18 I have traveled alone long term on two separate occasions.

  • The first time was in the summer between years at High School. I toured around Nicaragua for a month doing things such as volcano boarding, fishing, riding a scooter and other adventurous exciting things.

  • The second time I ventured out into the world on my own was this March. I was dealing with an ACL injury so I decided that Mexico would be a good place to work on my leg. I spent over a month enjoying the beautiful beaches of Playa Del Carmen and Cancun as well as experiencing some of the fascinating Mexican culture.

#Now what am I going to do now that I'm 18

Over the past 36 hours I have been traveling to where I currently am Leon, Nicaragua. I feel this is a great place to start on my own, learn and enjoy my life. I'm not a child anymore so if I don't want to deal with the freezing cold Western Canadian winters I don't have any excuse.

I now will continue on my path to Spanish fluency as well establish businesses and living an interesting life.

I believe that the best thing I could have done is leaving home and becoming an independent man who rows his own boat.

I thank you for reading and if you have any comments I would appreciate reading them.

What made you choose those places?

After living in canada I have concluded that for me I like summer so I am glad to be here as it gets colder at home. I really like the low cost of living and the opportunity bieng in a developing country provides.

Just as a man would not cherish living in a body other than his own, so do nations not like to live under other nations, however noble and great the latter may be.
