Dawn Of 2013: A Giveaway

Day two of 2013 found us driving interstate in Australia. We were merrily cruising in a supermini car that we hired for five bucks a day. Yes, five Aussie dollars. But under the condition that we drive it from Sydney to Brisbane within five days. A time frame that certainly is more than enough to cover a thousand kilometers.

Our supposed final destination was an "intentional community" in a peaceful bushland near hippie suburbs Mullumbimby and Byron Bay, where we planned to stay for a month. Though we're kicking off another year as a technically homeless family, hubby and I are thrilled at the idea of schooling (Or shall I say unschooling?) ourselves again in far-flung foreign lands. Never mind we spend all our earnings as we go, so long as we live in "the now". 

The long drive on the Pacific Highway made us fondly reminisce about how we traveled like it's the end of the world in 2012. Twelve countries. We're probably never gonna top that. But it doesn't matter because it ain't a goal of ours. What we do intend to accomplish this 2013 is to live in different places, in the Philippines and beyond, on longer periods. In a way it shall prepare us for normalcy. Next year, our daughter will start preschool education which will surely anchor us somewhere. Where exactly? We don't know.

I feel as though we've started counting down to the end of our carefree days. A prison with cells made of conventional rules and routines awaits around the corner. It saddens us quite bit, but who are we to whinge? For four years that the hubby and I have been together, all our memories revolved around travel. Packing and unpacking. Checking in and checkin out. Departure and arrival.

Like I said a while back, the universe spoiled us to bits. We really couldn't ask for anything more. Can hardly wait to know what 2013 got up its sleeve! And you know what? I'm spreading the good vibe around via a giveaway!

2013 seems to bring in a lot of new beginnings. Though I envy you and a lot of other travel bloggers for still having the freedom to roam, my Teloyskie will starting grade school this year so I have to be more grounded/domesticated. I am not complaining though and still plan on exploring the region with the boys instead :)

January 13, 2013 at 9:06 PM

Yup, been following them for a long time na. I stalk a lot of nomad families online and I'm not sure if it's healthy for me. Haha. I get all these radical ideas that the hubby and I debate about.

I have so many plans for this year! Basta the travel plans that I'm 100% sure of - I have to do Cambodia this year, Chiang Mai (I am so adopting a panda or a koalaaa! And I have to do Siquijor and maybe Camotes. Baby steps. Busy-busyhan sa work. Chos. :)

Gaye @ Pinay Travel Junkie said...
January 13, 2013 at 9:18 PM

Wow, thank you! Hope your travel plans push through.

Gaye @ Pinay Travel Junkie said...

Ooh... I'd love to see Camotes. And pandas again and again and again.

AJ said...
January 13, 2013 at 9:28 PM

I'm so bad at planning. I don't plan beyond the next few months (which makes me miss out a lot on promo fares!). So, so far it's just Nepal for me in Feb.

Christian | Lakad Pilipinas said...
January 13, 2013 at 9:39 PM

No plans for this year, basta bahala na si Batman kung saan mapadpad :)

That strap rocks by the way! ;P

Excursionista said...
January 13, 2013 at 9:42 PM

No plans for the first half of the year. Might just go with the flow :p But I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Laos-Myanmar trip will push through in Q3.

Gaye @ Pinay Travel Junkie said...
January 13, 2013 at 10:04 PM

Weee Nepal! Is ze mom going too?

Gaye @ Pinay Travel Junkie said...
January 13, 2013 at 10:06 PM

I'm pretty sure Batman will let you roam to soooo many places, Christian!

Claire | Traveling Light said...
January 13, 2013 at 10:09 PM

You think Luna's preschool education should anchor you? Have you ever heard of homeschooling? *wink wink*


Anyway, I don't really have much fixed travel plans for 2013, but my goal is to incorporate volunteerism whenever I can in my travels, especially teaching baybayin, our ancient Filipino writing system. =)

Christian | Lakad Pilipinas said...
January 13, 2013 at 10:09 PM

Via the Batmobile I hope haha

Gaye @ Pinay Travel Junkie said...
January 13, 2013 at 10:13 PM

I've thought of homeschooling and even unschooling. But the thought of taking Luna to school, and picking her up after actually excites me.

Mimai Cabugnason said...
January 13, 2013 at 10:26 PM

Go to El Nido! :D

Claire | Traveling Light said...
January 13, 2013 at 10:41 PM

Unschooling - I like that! Often conventional schools take away creativity and sense of adventure. If you do get anchored, I'm hoping for the best school that suits a cool and unconventional family like yours. =)

Kaze Agar said...

Settling down like most families do make for weary ordinary days, but it does build and heighten the excitement for future travel plans like no other. Too, there's that heartwarming comfort in coming home to something familiar after a trip elsewhere. Slow travel ain't such a bad idea :)


This year, we're revisiting Corregidor, Tagaytay and Bataan. Crossing my fingers that I could also start mountain climbing na this year, kahit Manalmon sana or Maculot :)

Agnes Dc said...
January 14, 2013 at 11:58 AM

would like to swim with butanding . my dream travel plan this year.

Gaye @ Pinay Travel Junkie said...
January 14, 2013 at 12:05 PM

Maculot's my first mountain! And it's true. I crave for that feeling of coming home to a familiar pillow. It hasn't happened for a looong time.

Teachr Cheryl Golangco said...

Jherson Jaya said...

January 15, 2013 at 10:38 AM

being technically homeless gives you the adventure of a lifetime!.. the road is your home but yes, sometimes there are certain things that we can't getaway with because this is the rule of life, e.g. schooling.. but it's not as bad either..


My 2013 plans?.. haven't really thought about it.. :) but first, I must ensure that I'm still alive before this year ends.. lols.. Maybe stepping away from home for a year is not a bad idea!.. :)

Question: What are your travel plans for 2013?

Answer: As for 2013, I don't really have immediate travel plans. But if things go well, I might be going to Bacolod City or in Manila.

For the years to come, I plan to visit more places in the Philippines and some countries in Asia. Top of my list will be Japan, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia.

I and my travel buddies started wandering early, too. On Jan 2, we headed for Bantayan Island then to the islands of Bohol and Panglao up to Jan 7th. The following are my travel plans for 2013: February: Samal Island; March - Dipolog, Dapitan, Dakak, Fantasyland; April - Surigao Sur/Norte, Siargao; May: Agusan Marsh; June: Coron and El Nido; August: Basilan, Jolo, Tawi-Tawi; October: Bacolod and Camiguin; November: Manila and Manila Ocean Park's Asian Horror Ghost House if they'll have it again this year; December: free month. I don't like travelling alone, so either family, friends or both will be going with me in all those trips. Thank God my job allows "rest day on duty for offset."
