Two Months and Rolling

I am officially two months into my travels. I can’t believe how quickly the time is going. I Jellystarted just two months ago with 14 months off from work to travel and to experience all that I can. I now have exactly one year left before returning to work in 2014. I have definitely kept myself busy over the last two months and started my time off with a bang.
