About Me

So who am I and what is this blog about?

My name is Jaime and I am on my second two year trip around the world. Yes second!!! During my first two year trip I visited 30 countries and over 100 cities. I also fell in love in Cairo, but giving the circumstance he was the last goodbye. I don’t know how to describe what those two years were for me, but do know they were the most amazing thing I have ever done in my life and know I will never be the same because of them. Before that trip I had spent my whole life living in Houston, Texas and aside from a few vacations and visiting family in Mexico I hadn’t seen much of the world. I had been working since I was 15 and felt that I was a slave to Corporate America. I hit rock bottom at 23 when I was arrested for drinking and driving. It was that event that helped me become who I am today. At 25 I quit my job, sold just about all my belongings and traveled the world for 2 years. When I returned home I had no clue what I was going to do, but everything fell into place and found a decent job and started saving for the next adventure that I am on now. I am now 29 and this time around my plans are to travel through South America, more of Europe and Asia. I will eventually make my way back to Cairo and hope it’s not too late when I get there.

I do believe “everything happens for a reason” and know that all the choices I have made in the past have brought me to where I am today. It came with a lot of sacrifices, but as soon as I knew my dream of traveling the world was attainable I went for it.

On this blog I document my questions, thoughts, tips, adventures and anything else that comes with my journey round-the-world and my life. I want to show everyone that it is possible to breakaway and be happy. Oh & share my love for Kelly Clarkson as well!!!
