4 months block.
I don’t even know what I feel about coming home. Over four months ago, I embarked on a trip to Russia to work with the Siberian tourism board with little to no plans on what I’d be doing after. I boarded the flight to Russia with $88 dollars with a little money still to come through from jobs I’d just finished, but I didn’t think I’d be able to hang on overseas for the remainder of the year. In those four months, I went around the entirety of the world, and it was wild. From Russia, I went to Finland, France, Norway, England, Sri Lanka, Brazil and then back around the world to the Philippines and Bali.
That’s definitely not a generic flight route, and I’d often receive unusual looks from the people checking me in at the airport when I told them where I was flying. This year was a series of phases and chapters, with different events and countries being the themes of these. I was never sure how I would make it to the next upcoming block financially, but I’d always carry an unrelenting belief that it’ll work out* (*Being highly proactive being the backbone to the belief).
Returning home to Adelaide
Alas, it was time to head back to Adelaide. I think I’ll spend the next couple of months there, and enjoy the sizzling Aussie heat. It’s a different kind of heat to SE Asia, as it’s very dry. A climate I thrive in. I’ll be soaking up the heat, spending time with friends and training lots to set myself up for a huge 2019.
I haven’t got out with the camera much since being home, I’ve mainly been running lots. Knocking our 95km a week. One of my biggest weeks this year. Anyway, here’s a few photos from home, they’re quite dreamy.
Big Love,
JL

Hey Josh,
I really admire your spirits and the outlook you have on life.
Right now I am very unsure where my journey will take me because my vision has disappeared. I set myself a goal of running a half-marathon in Adelaide among other things to do but because my plans have been thrown off by not getting my Visa in time it made me feel very uneasy.
Now that I have my Visa I will be coming to Adelaide on Saturday, could you give me any advice on what to consider when running a half marathon and how to do it for charity?
Cheers mate,
Your site looks awesome.
