The Day I Left To Travel The World

January 28, 2023September 16, 2016 by Steve M

So this is it – the moment finally arrived after months or more like years of planning. I traveled to Heathrow to get on a plane by myself for the first time ever and leave the country.

Tomorrow I will get on a flight (by myself for the first time ever), leave Europe (first time ever) and start my trip around the world (also first time ever). Yikes!

MEET STEVE

Hi, I'm Steve, the founder of Backpacking for Beginners. I've experienced how amazing traveling around the world is and now I want to help you experience it too.

I left England in 2009 to travel the world. It was the first time I had been out of Europe, but I spent the best part of two years traveling the globe and have been traveling on and off since then. In fact, I even spent time working as a 'travel expert' (RIP STA Travel!).

Taking that first step was very nerve-wracking for me, but it was the best thing I ever did. Now I want to help you live the dream!
