And I'm off to.................................. GREECE!!!

As I've spent the past 2+ years teaching English as a way to travel I've realized some things. First, my soul mate is travel. Nothing on this Earth gives me more happiness then stepping off a boat/bus/train/plane/any mode of transportation into a new city. Second the way parents interact with their children's school is dramatically different in different countries. And third, I want to spend more time doing the thing I love the most: traveling. It's not that I don't like teaching, I just don't like staying still. Here months sometimes pass without me earning enough money to leave the country.

So here we have the problem, money. I'm not talking lots of it, I've visited countries on very small budgets before but you do need a bit. So I've decided I need to start looking into new ways to travel and make money. I'll still be teaching English however I want to be able to visit more cities in Europe while I'm based in Hungary, and that requires more funds.

So how will I do this?

I've decided to attend TBEX Athens and learn more about the world of travel blogging. And hopefully break into it.

TBEX is the leading conference for travel blogging and a great place to network. This year's TBEX Europe's conference is being held in Athens Greece next week. As I debated whether or not I should sign up I realized it fits perfectly into my Autumn holiday from school. It's like the universe pushed me towards it :-)

I'm looking forward to meeting people with the same passions as myself, seasoned travelers who want to share their knowledge. So as I prepare my business cards and pack my carry-on I'm dreaming about my possibilities.

T-minus 3 days :-)
