pacific sun.

my itineraries are usually packed with things i want to do, places i want to see. planning for my trip hawaii took me half a year, but only during the past few days i really got into it. but still i didn't realize that the one dream i had for so long was about to come true.

now i am here. roughly 24 hours, but needless to say that jet lag is not a word i know right now, i am far too excited to have landed in paradise yesterday. as soon as i was able to spot the first corners of hawaii i started to cry. this was the moment it became real. the whole way i thought something might go wrong, a delayed plane, extreme weather conditions or the hell knows what. but then and there i knew it. i made it.

sitting here in waikiki now, just shorts and a t-shirt, is awesome. after a day filled with bringing that itinerary to life. i planned it all out. which bus to take, how much time to spend at a certain place. but still lose enough to improvise. especially from tomorrow on, i'll be more independent cruising around with a scooter. it'll give me the freedom to stop wherever i want.

freedom, that's what this whole trip is about. being all alone where nobody knows your name. i don't have to be anywhere unless i tell myself to. no work. nothing. there's just beach, sun and rainforests.

living the dream. i'll keep you updated.
