God love us.
This wasn't two 15 year olds
we were 19
But still.
My friend is now the mother of three eldest almost 15.
How did that happen!!
Is that a trick question Perse
Are you old enough to remember flagons of Boss cider from the hatch in the wall on Moore St? They were lax with ID, using a mixture of common sense and discretion instead. If you appeared well oiled, you'd be informed very diplomatically that they'd 'just sold the last two bottles two minutes ago, f*ck all left son'. However, if they decided you weren't up to divilment on the evening no problem. Maturity always trumped age. I was a regular patron of the hatch, two flagons of Boss between me and me two mates would get demolished in 20 mins in the lane at Conways for a bit of dutch courage before we'd strut into the weekly Ska night in Bensons(basement of the Parnell Mooney). Bensons, much like the hatch in the no name had a similar approach when it came to who they let through the doors, we were regular faces at the ripe old age of fifteen. Age was secondary to common sense and as a result it policed itself in effect. Their pragmatism also extended to the rolling and smoking of spliffs, so much so that if you weren't skanking on the floor and weren't rolling and/or smoking you'd get a few funny looks... I'm rambling now, a bit of nostalgia slapped me in the head and my mind is casting itself back to some of my cider adventures. Everyone worth their salt has at least one decent cider story, anyone who doesn't would make a lousy barstool neighbour.0 -

OH MY GOD SOMEONE WHO THINKS THE SAME AS ME!! It is so hard. Especially when you travel on your own, you have nobody to hand the reins over to. And its a constant battle between keep going incase of FOMO but also stopping incase of breakdown!supermouse wrote: »Still in Panama City - still don't see the attraction. Trying to replan the next 5 weeks as violent protests have broken out in Nicaragua, and I fly there on Tuesday.
Thing is, I am tired. Today I am on the road 9 months 2 weeks ... non stop. I am tired of everything changing every. single. day. I think it may be time to call it quits and head home, 5 weeks early.
AAHH decisions decisions.
I hear ya. Did similar last year in Asia, that's how I ended up living in KL. Only it took me 6 months to burn out!
It's hard work trying to figure out where next and spend so much time on booking.com
KL is awesome, glad you found somewhere to find home. And someone to tickle your fancy 0 -

You feel almost a constant pressure and guilt for not doing every thing recommended in the guide books or people's suggestions too. It's such a privilege to travel and there is so much to see and do but it is bloody exhausting.
Last year in Bali was great coz I made my sister and her friend organise our hotels etc and happily agreed to everything.
Have just extended my stay in Kuta, somewhere that drives me nuts, so that I don't have to figure stuff out. Hit Ubud Friday for a week.
Laziness but am here to relax.0 -
YOU DO! I have also stopped talking to people - I flipping hate the same chat, every time. Where are you from/where did you come from/ where are you going next .. it kills me.supermouse wrote: »OH MY GOD SOMEONE WHO THINKS THE SAME AS ME!! It is so hard.

I am actually 20mins away from leaving for the airport ... but a MASSIVE part of me wants to turn back to Colombia and skip Guatemala this time. I can do it another time. I literally do not know if I have the go for it.
Enjoy the chill time - everybody deserves chill time, even travellers. We don't go-go-go in our daily lives, we shouldn't pressure ourselves to do it while we travel either
