Hi everyone!

I’ve finally stopped "one day-ing" my dreams and started the countdown. On January 1st, I’m heading out for a one-way trip around the world, starting with the vibrant chaos of Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, and beyond!).

My goal isn't luxury; it’s local markets, overnight trains, and finding the hidden spots that don't make it into the brochures.

I know it’s a big ask, but if you’re a fellow traveler or someone who just loves a good "quitting the 9-5" story, I’d be beyond grateful for a small boost. Whether it’s a coffee for a long planning night or a few Euros toward a hostel bed in Bangkok, every bit of support helps me stay on the road a little longer.

In return, I’m happy to:

• Share the "Pre-trip Chaos": What I’m packing, how I’m budgeting, and all the mistakes I make before I even leave.

• Live Updates: Once January hits, I’ll be sharing raw, unfiltered stories from the streets of Hanoi to the islands of Thailand.

• Virtual Postcards: Send some high-res shots of the places I visit for your own travel inspo!

If you want to fuel my journey, you can find my "Coffee Fund" here: https://revolut.me/tomskbl

Even if you can't donate, I NEED your advice! If you’ve been to SE Asia, what’s the one street food stall or hidden beach I absolutely cannot miss?

Thanks for being part of the countdown! ✌️

Planning the ultimate escape: SE Asia starts January 1st!
