Freedom from whatever you want freedom from, meeting pople from all walks of life; the nice ones, the shite ones and the "characters", new stuff to try; hiking, surfing, beach volleyball, rock climbing, snorkelling, cliff jumping, scuba diving, kayaking, new jobs to try that you know will end so you don't worry too much if they are spectacularly pants, traditional food and drink, the 100 Club, you name it!, gorgeous and majestic landscapes, warm lagoon sea, squeaky sand, a whole new country to figure out, a new culture to begin to understand, independence, lack of habits and routine, adventure wherever you care to look, away from the daily grind, stunningly sunny weather and spectacular storms, culture not out of a yoghurt pot, making friends for life (not just for Christmas or in that fact, just for travelling either!), drastic improvement of mathematical ability stemming from working in African bars with no till or calculator to speak of and moving around so much that the currency converter is the one you have adjusted automatically in your head and at the end of it all... letting the dream come true!
