Lina recently posted..Why I Love Skiing in Banff
Lina, it’s seriously an amazing journey you have when blogging. It’s so much work yet a bit easy at times and along the way you will hate it and love it, but it’s all worth it when you get an email from someone you have inspired to live their dream. That is why I keep doing it and keep being me for those emails because those are priceless. Thanks for following along.
Massive congratulations being sent your way. 3 years is such a landmark and I’m so thankful for the opportunity to get to know you and call you a friend because of this exciting adventure we’re both on! Here’s to the next year of sharing your stories and inspiring people to get out there and live!

Congratulations Jaime! I am really a big fan of your blog. Love the humor, honesty and the other kinky stuff teehee 😀 Ah, the first time I went here you were still preparing for the trip. Hope to see you real soon since I missed you when you went to the Philippines. More travels and lots of love <3

I will definitely continue to follow along. I’m going to Panama for three months leaving 7 Aug 2013. It’s not as major as your trip but it’s a start and who knows what’s in store for me next year.
Paula recently posted..Countdown (eight days and a wake up) – Figuring out what to pack
Thanks Paula for following along and I’m excited for your adventure. It may not be as long as mine but any adventure can have just as big as an impact. It’s all about what you make of the time you have and it looks like you are going to make good use of it. Enjoy your travels.
I’ll always follow your adventures! My blog has been mostly personal versus travel for 2 of its 3 years, and while I don’t have the readership that you do, I still want to share my stories for the small group that still connects with me 🙂 Keep sharing <3
Heather recently posted..Helicopter tour of the Big Island of Hawaii: Volcanoes and waterfalls
Awwww Heather… thank you for following along. Your blog was also one of the 1st blogs I started reading and still do. I love that I have seen you go from travel to your life. It’s crazy where our lives may lead, we truly never know. I still hope our paths cross one day… cus I think you are oneo f the few I have yet to meet that I have been following since I started blogging.
Congrats love. So glad we finally met. I look forward to seeing each other again soon and to another year of Breakaway Backpacker!

Michael Hodson recently posted..A quick view of Peru via Instagram for #coloursofperu
OMG… is it a WORD??? Now I have no damn clue Michael… ugh thanks for making me question that…lol!!!
Congratulations! Many happy returns (returns, why returns? anyone know where that phrase comes from please?!!)
Kathryn recently posted..Favourite Streets of Paris: rue Montorgueil
Oh wow Kathryn I have no idea why people say Happy Returns… maybe because we want Happy things returned to us through out time???
Congratulations Jaime!! 3 year is a hige milestone for a blog! you really must love what you’re doing!
do you think your most popular blog will always remain the famous chicken bus?? lol
I admit it, when i stumbled upon your blog i didn’t read it!! i just noticed it a few months ago! I had read all of your blog basically, except for that..shame on me 🙂
Never stop writing, you make so many people happy, inspired, stronger with your honest words!
kle recently posted..Never give up on your dreams. Hard work always pays off!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I’m glad to hear one of the 1st post you read on my blog was not the chicken bus post!!! I have no end in sight just yet. I hope I can write for a while more to come.
We did the unthinkable, and stopped cable!!!!!! At $149 a month x 12, well, you do the math. That’s one of the benefits. You CAN do the math and get to read a lot more too. Took the almost $1800 and went to Chile and Easter Island with a friend which is another great way to save money–splitting everything 50/50. Of course, you have to like the person and travel in a similar way. Oh, and we had enough miles (60,000) for a free ticket to Santiago, so we both actually came home with money!!!!
EXACTLY… it’s small things like that… that add up!!!
Quite the journey!! If you really think about it though, its probably just getting started! Many more great things to come for you, I’m sure!!
Thanks Wade, it really has been and have a long way to go (hopefully).
happy anniversary!
Thanks Hogga!!!
Congrats, you’ve come a LONG LONG LONG way.
Don’t let being home get you down, it’s an energy sink of sorts.
Store your energy so you can “breakaway” again.
Rob recently posted..Biplane Ride Over Historic St. Augustine, Florida
I like the way you said that, Rob. It’s hard being home but good at the same time.
Well, that’s coming from a girl who has only been back for about 2 weeks…
Congrats Jaime!
Kristin Addis recently posted..Hakkasan: Vegas’ Hottest New Nightclub
Kristin… thanks and we can do it!!! I’ve been home over 5 months now and still having a hard time. Keep your head up… it will all go as it’s meant to go.
Thanks so much Rob… and yes I’m trying hard to let being home get me down. I’m enjoying it and making the most of it. I am also saving to breakaway again!!!
It’s so surreal to look back and think about all the things that we were able to accomplish in the past.
It feels like it was just yesterday when we were just both planning our trips, when we reached our first 100 days on the road, our first year in blogging and so on…
Time flies so f**** fast 🙂
Congratulations Jaime on your third year. Seldom do I get to comment now but I’m still reading your blog posts every now and then. It’s entertaining and at the same time inspiring to read what you have gone through in the past years.
Keep on writing and of course keep on traveling and enjoying life. 🙂
Safe travels as always,
-Flip
Hey FLIP… OMG I know right? It’s crazy how far we have come. I love that you are still on the road and still living the dream too. I’m back at home for now, but working to get back out here and hopefully will soon.
Thanks for being apart of my crazy adventure and you too keep enjoying life.
400 posts over 3 years, that is quiet impressive! I have written maybe 110 over 2,5 years! But I must admit I’m not that great with being on top of my game 🙂
