Blogtember Day 2: If you could take three months off from your current life and do anything in the world, what would you do?
3 months. 12 weeks. An alternate life?
I have thought about this a lot actually. You know when you are just sitting in bed thinking and your mind starts dreaming about wonderful things? Thats when I think of other things I could be doing with my life. Part of me is regretting not having a gap year before going to uni, I see peoples travelling pictures and the green eyed monster takes over. So if I were to have 3 months off and live some sort of alternate life, these are the things I would do:
1. Travel. I think travelling is going to be on nearly everyones list, right? I have always wanted to travel. Going to new places excites me and learning about their culture, trying their food and being in a completely different environment appeals to me in every way. BUT with only 3 months I think I would stick to a smaller adventure, such as a tour of the UK or a EuroRail!

2. Learn to play guitar. I have always wanted to be able to play guitar, and say that I am going to teach myself every summer and never do. I just want to sing songs round campfires and make boys love me by singing to them, okay?!
3. Learn French, German and Spanish. How cool would it be to fluently (or thereabouts) speak a foreign language? I think it would be tres cool.
4. Visit/ Work in New York. I don't think there is much explantion needed for this one. Just see my Dear New York post.

5. Volunteer. Maybe I would go to Africa, but there are other places that offer volunteer programs as well. Seeing people happy and helping people less fortunate than ourselves is an important thing to remember I think!
I would love to know what you guys would do with 3 months off. Would you travel the world? Learn something new? Or sit and drink plenty of tea? Let me know :)

love the mini quote. I also would love to be fluent in another language!! I think it would be wonderful to be one of those people in a store having a secret conversation!!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I know what you mean. Just talk about people in a different language and hope they don't understand what you are saying!
