2021

The new year is fast approaching, and I’m just sitting here, watching, writing my blogs, and well recovering. There aren’t many options when you are being in self-isolation, anyway, it might be the best time to write my visions! In this blog, I’ll be listing down some of my plans for the upcoming 2021 and beyond. Let’s put it in the universe and manifest, shall we?

Early of my next year will be dedicated to working and saving up. Because of this year’s quarantine and all, I will need to work on improving my financial status for my other future goals. I’m considering cutting off some expenses that I had which could be replaced by other less expensive options.

Things such as gym memberships, driving, language lessons. I’m still debating which one I would be prioritizing but this would help me allocate the previous expenses for travels and investments.

I’m planning to continue the habits that I have built this year. Habits such as running, meditation, yoga, consistent investment, and language practice. I’ll work on improving them as well in the best way that I can.

Speaking of language, I’m planning to focus on conversation practice for my Spanish, Hindi, and Indonesian. I believe my grammar knowledge of them is ready for the next level. I will be delaying my French for this since I’m still having troubles with comprehension and pronunciation, but French will come soon in the next half of the year. I am also planning on taking basic Japanese in the third quarter of this year so wish me luck!

I will also continue hoarding self-help books and learning about finance as much as I can. My record last year was 28 books and hopefully, I can beat that number this year.

Travel might have to wait as it is still risky with COVID 19 around. In case I get the opportunity to do so, my first target countries are Central and South America. I have been improving my Spanish for this and am very excited about this adventure. It’s hard to say when but if it won’t be next year, hopefully, early 2022! I am also thinking of traveling more locally since it is safer, once summer hits I’ll be open to hiking more and spending time in nature.

Lastly, this blog. I’ve been enjoying writing over the years, in fact just last year I wrote 28 of them, more than I have written in the past 3 years! I will continue to do so, of course, but I am planning to revamp this blog and focus more on lifestyle instead of travel. I will still continue to write guides for hikes here and there and post most pictures from my travels but as I have mentioned earlier, traveling won’t be much of my priorities.

Well, that sums up my 2021 and beyond plans! What’s yours? Let me know on the comment down below! If you want to reach out to me, just click on those social media icons and I’ll definitely respond to any questions! Wishing everyone a great year ahead!
