I am lying here quite sick today…wondering what I want to do. Been a rather depressing day with news of dying babies and bomb blasts in Norway. Dave and Agnes is staying here for a couple of nights but I don’t really have much energy to entertain them, so I am lying here on my bed thinking of what I want to do.
I am contemplating taking a year out to do things I want to do. So in the event of taking a year out here is a list of thing I would want to do:
1) go on a charity placement for a duration of time 1-3 months in either Africa or North Western China
2) travel through China to find out about my roots and learn from a Chinese Sheikh.
3) visit Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan
4) Hajj
5) Visit Muritania
6) Learn a new language
7) cycle parts of the silk road and ride a camel through Gobi desert.
To be honest, I don’t think 1 year is enough and I wonder if I could ever have a “normal” life after such experiences.
