A Quick Update

Since my last entry quite a bit has happened I guess. I will update on that in a second, but first I thought I should tell you all a bit about myself so you can relate when I say things.

I am an 18 year old Canadian named William. I just finished my first year of University in Miami, Florida and I have considered Costa Rica(a central American country) my home for the past 4 years or so due to parents work positions moving us there.

Anyways as I said last time, I was up in Vancouver, Canada working to save money for this trip. I am done work now, and just waiting around until August 7th when I meet up with Fabio in Switzerland to start our journey. While I was up in Canada, Fabio came up for about 2 weeks to live with me and start his travels early. We had a lot of fun!

I realize I am kind of ranting, with no real formatting or point in sight but I am just going on with this, as my memory highlights certain things. Oh! I got a girl friend a few weeks ago in Vancouver. Very random as I was not even looking for one as I will be moving all over the world in the next year. This girl is amazing though, she came out of nowhere and I couldn't resist. Hopefully we can make it work over the next year.

Speaking of which, I am actually, currently in LA, California for the weekend(going back to Vancouver tomorrow) as my GF has an audition here (she is an actress.) Tomorrow I am going back to Vancouver, then two days after that I am going to visit my Mom at her house in Costa Rica, then 4 days after that I am going to Miami to make sure the vehicle I have in storage there is holding up fine, and then finally two days after this I will land in Greece, Athens more specifically.

From Athens I will backpack between 5 differant countries with my family before they fly back home and I branch of the meet Fabio in Switzerland. My family and I plan to tour Greece, Germany, Austria, Norway, Scotland and England over 3 weeks together. I am looking forward to that, but this blog is more based on my backpacking adventures after that with my mate Fabio.

Anyways, that ends this mess of an update. Also, I added a photo of me to the initial entry so that my readers can put a face to me when reading my blog. Subscribe and I will update often once this trip gets fully under way!

Again, for an alternate view on my upcoming travels please view Fabio's blog as well:

And for good measure I added another photo of me here at my hotel in LA.

Until next time,

William
