where Charlie wanders where Charlie wanders
Those of you have been following my blog for a while, will know it was originally named ‘Reaching 30 before 30’. This was stemmed from my goal of visiting 30 countries before I turned 30 years old.
I was 24 when I set myself this aim and had visited 18 countries. In May 2016 I reached my 30th country, Guatemala, at the age of 27.
Because it turns out reaching 30 before 30 was very achieveable I then set myself the goal of 40 countries before I am 30.
In November 2018, I achieved 40 before 30. So what’s next? 50 before 40 I guess? Although for now, I just want to travel where ever the wind may take me, and wherever I want to wander.
