TodayIsTheDay(TITD): World is small, too many things to do.

"The world is so small and there are too many things to do."

One of the richest men, a former CEO of Daewoo in Korea said this pharase and it was quite popular between people quite a while to encourage and motivate themselves. I didn't really care why he said that or what made him to think that way at that time but I used the phrase very often because it sounded quite cool. Can you believe that I finally found out the reason and I cannot agree it more.

We had breakfast in Indonesia, lunch in Singapore and dinner in Vietnam a week ago. Being in the three countries within a day surprised me again how the world is small and reachable to anyone who wish to travel nowadays. While we are travelling, we have seen so many young people who are travelling many countries with their peers. I am very happy for them that they have got opportunities to travel other countries and learn new things and different cultures when they are young. Unfortunately, I didn't really know how important to travel and see other people's life at that age and dismissed the opportunities with ordinary excuses, 'study hard, get a good job, work hard and earn more money'.

I am not young and fresh as them any more but I appreciate that I finally realised how important to see the world and learn new things. I truly believe that late is far better than never. I am so lucky to have this opportunity to travel in order to experience different culture and see life of other countries' people. It has been a priceless education and eye opening experience for me which I would be extremely sorry to miss.

'There are too many things to do...' I don't think that he exactly meant that we need to travel more, experience more and enjoy life more. As one of the richest business man, maybe he meant work harder or learn more skills to increase efficiency. However I can certainly say that there are too many things to do, see, feel, experience and learn in our world. Since we have started our trip, every day seems to be a new empty page to be filled. I have seen so many extraordinary people, memorable places, special things and unforgettable events. There are too many things I would like to capture, understand and learn so the 4 months travel doesn't seem enough to me. My days are absolutely filled by excitement and joyful experiences. I can't imagine how many things we would miss if we did not push ourselves to start this trip. I appreciate every single moment of my life and enjoy it completely now which I have always wished for.

Now I can proudly say and understand that 'The world is so small and there are too many things to do! '. If you are now sitting in front of the computer at work and dreaming about something special that makes your life happier and brighter, then plan a trip or do something new. Waiting the chance will never lead you anywhere. You are the one who can create the chance and today is the day.

We are ready for walking around Phnom Penh, Cambodia today and I can't wait to see new things and feel the city. Life is simply beautiful, isn't it?
