Traveling is one of the passions I discovered albeit belatedly (read: I discovered it at a point when I am not that mobile {tagging my little one along all the time + a host of baby-related accoutrements along with it} + not that financially capable to do it quite often :().

Back when I was younger I don’t really take to traveling + all the hoopla surrounding it, that much. I am content in my own little world that any disturbance or slight change on my daily routine  annoyed + fazed me.

But, maybe I am getting old, that I now look forward to more travel adventures with my little man + his dad. In fact, I now consider it a personal milestone + victory that we get to travel along with our toddler + although it takes a huge amount of effort to do so, I am always delighted whenever we manage to visit places we’ve never been before + do things we’ve never done before.

In fact, I am so much into traveling now that I am making my own travel blog + if I get lucky {or find enough time} I’d be able to launch it within the next week or two. How does Musings + Meanderings sound to you {I’ve actually ventured into making this subdomain “https://musingsandmeanderings.jaredslittlecorner.info” but something went wrong that when I was to log into the new wp blog, the page is no longer uploading. I’m just glad sis Ma Belle, bless her, was able to fix it for me, so I’ll visit good ol’ c-panel again to install WordPress again using Fantastico ;)}.  I’d feature our little family travels there + include souvenirs and postcards, too {loads of postcards! :)}

Talking about it is getting me so excited! Now, I must finish some more tasks so I’ll have some free time to mull things over my new travel blog later tonight. Wish me luck 😉
