Four years ago today. • Four years ago today I was in Vang Vieng, Laos. It is one of the most amazing, tranquil places I’ve ever been. We spent a whole week there, and it truly was great. • However, due to my anxiety and restlessness I had a hard time relaxing, despite the perfect surroundings. • At the time, it was filled with coffee shops and restaurants playing episodes of friends, and people lounging around drinking shakes and smoking. • I was going stir crazy from just watching others doing nothing. And as much as I wanted just to lounge around, I couldn’t. • I am an active person who needs to keep busy. And mixed with the anxiety, I just couldn’t enjoy the complete calmness of the place. • That being said, I would probably still go back there in a heartbeat. Although, I’ve heard it’s not the same anymore... • • • How about you? Do you enjoy lounging around on holidays? Has anxiety stopped you from being completely present? • • • • • • • • • • • • • #bloggerscommunity #aspiringblogger #bloggerslifestyle #bloggersofinstagram #vangvieng #vangviengtrip #vangvienglaos #laostrip #fouryearsagoalready #fouryearsago #fouryearsagotoday #travelwriting #writingabouttravel #travelandwrite #writeandtravel #pasttrip #pasttravels #pasttravel #copingwithanxiety #anxietyawareness #anxietyproblems #anxietysupport (at Vang Vieng) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB0vMnfpyod/?igshid=1oa6w0r5juaav

The Black Forest, Freiburg. • • One of my favorite memories from my Germany trip, was getting lost in the Black Forest on our way down the mountains. Rows and rows of never ending trees, every shade of green imaginable, and the smell of wood, leafs and soil mixed together. It was a once in a lifetime experience I just had to commemorate by drawing. • • I actually prefer forests and mountains views, to ocean and city views - although they are beautiful too. But there is just something so breathtaking and surreal about the green nature. • • • How about you? Have you been to the Black Forest? Do you prefer mountains, forests, ocean or city views? • • • • • • • • • • • • • • #travelanddraw #drawandtravel #writeandtravel #writeandtravelblog #travelandwrite #travelandwritetoday #travelwritedraw #traveldrawing #traveldrawings #traveldraw #travelwriters #travelwriting #blackforestgermany #blackforestdrawing #forestview #forestviews #staedtler #staedtlerpens #pensdrawing #drawinginspiration #travelmoments #travelmemory #freiburgcity #edwardgorey #inspiredbyedwardgorey #edwardgoreyinspired (at Freiburg, Black Forest, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDEcH-gpZUu/?igshid=1dx2w5p43vl4w

Four years ago today I was on a motorbike loop in Thakhek Laos. It was like driving through a Windows screensaver. • • It was truly a moment of peace and tranquil. No worries in the world, just driving through the endless nature. One of my favorite memories and moments. • • There is something so unique and soul balancing about driving like that, with no time limit or pressure. Just going with the flow and going in our own pace, stopping whenever and wherever our hearts desire. In complete control. • • • How about you? Have you ever been on a motorbike loop? What is your favorite form of transportation? What are your favorite travel memories? • • • • • • • • • • #bloggerscommunity #bloggingmoments #travelandwrite #writeandtravel #writeandtravelblog #travelwriting #laostravel #laosmotorbike #laosmotorbiketours #thakhek #thakhekloop #writerslifestyle #writeeveryday #fouryearsagotoday #facebookmemories #pasttravels #pasttrip #writinginspiration #writinglife #travellifelove #travellog #travelloversofinstagram #motorbikeloop #windowsview #windowsscreensaver #travelmemories (at Thakhek) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCJR_tDppqK/?igshid=1a81tbjvwmhqu

Four years ago today, I had the pleasure of participating it this fun and amazing experience, in Da-Lat, Vietnam. • • It is called Canyoning, and we basically repelled down cliffs and waterfalls. • • When I travel, I love finding these kind of activities and experiences. Doing things that I probably can’t do anywhere else. Memorable things that will last a lifetime. • • It is daring, filled with adrenaline and it was exactly what I needed at the time. Something that will get me out of my head, will focus me on the here an now. • • • How about you? What are some of your favorite activities and experiences? Have you ever done anything like Canyoning? • • • • • • • • #aspiringblogger #writeandtravel #travelandwrite #travelwriting #canyoning #canyoningdalat #personalexperience #personalblogging #travelvietnam #dalatvietnam #travelactivities #travelexperience #pasttravel #fouryearsago #fouryearsagotoday #facebookmemories #repelling #waterfallsreppling #repellingdownwaterfalls #repellingwaterfalls #adrenalinerush #cliffjumping #cliffrepelling (at Đà Lạt - Việt Nam) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBQmdJZJzm-/?igshid=1m809pir9gqsn
