Thanking 2015 for a Well-Travelled Year Visiting 10 Countries
Happy New Year 2016 to everyone! How was your first days of the year? I hope everything is starting great. So far, mine is good and I can’t complain about it. I am full of hopes, dreams and determination for this year. Life must go on whatever lies ahead. We have to remember, life is like a wheel. Sometimes, we are up and sometimes we are down. There happy moments and there are sad. Oh well, this is life and no matter what, we are still so lucky to be here in this planet experiencing God’s beautiful creations. One way of seeing it is thru travelling. That is why, I am trying my best to travel when time and finances are available.
Budva is considered to be the famous tourist destination in Montenegro. No wonder, I visited it for the second time.
The Sultan Ahmet Mosque. This was also my second visit in Istanbul. It was spring season when I visited it last year.
I know this is quite late posting about the summary of my travels last 2015 but as the saying goes, “better late than never”! So far, visiting 10 countries and many places last year is already a great achievement for me despite having a full time job. Here are the countries and places I visited last 2015. I am also sharing some photos of these places for you to be inspired to visit it.
The Library of Celsus in Ephesus, Turkey. I feel so lucky seeing for the second time.

My goal for this year is to work hard, save more for travels and also properly budgeting for my ongoing projects back in my home country.
