The need to travel. the strong urge to just get up, pack my bags and leave is literally consuming me . Its eating me alive. I can feel the cool breeze of speeding car taking me to the airport, the excitement of checking in , the teary goodbye and stepping into the plane. Being able to see the world from high above HAS to be the most amazing feeling ever.

                           Ever since i was at a certain age, say around 14 maybe, that's grade 9  i think, i have always wanted to travel to all the countries in the world i knew of, London, New York, Dubai, Paris, Rome, Spain, Greece... oh i could go on forever! I've always wanted to shop in the biggest shopping mall in the world, take a ride in the longest roller coaster in the world, experience an actual carnival with Ferris wheels and all sorts of carnival games that they show in movies and describe so awesomely in books. Ive always wanted to visit the London train station where they filmed Harry Potter ( Platform 9 3/4 ! ) although i don't think I'll run into a wall and expect it to lead me there. 

                            It really doesnt help living in Sri Lanka. Its definitely home but its not the best entertainment-wise. Movies are either released two months late or not released at all, in which case we have to wait for it to pop up online and mind you, in good quality. The shopping malls here are , well lets just say almost every single person in Colombo at least has been to Majestic City at least 50 times in their lives. Its an alright place for a hangout, but thats just it.

Okay so this is turning out to be a review on Sri Lanka. so i'll stop right there. 

According to someone on Wikipedia,apparently In adolescence , dissatisfaction with the restrictions of home and locality may also fuel the desire to travel.

So there you go, thats my mini rant kind of thing about how much i want to travel. See all the wonderful things around the world that God has graced us with and the things that God has give the knowledge, the intellect to create. 

Hopefully i'll be able to visit half the places i dream of everyday before i die ! fingers crossed! 

Its my first blog post. Dont judge.

cheers xx
