“The dreams I have today are only a shadow of your dreams for me”

About 8 years ago, I gave myself a goal of visiting 60 countries before 60. I was at 21 countries then. 60 seemed so far away! I honestly didn’t think I would get to it before (age) 40. 

Growing up I would watch people like Samantha Brown go to all these amazing places around the world and dream of one day being able to do the same. Up until I was 18, the only time I left Sri Lanka was to visit Singapore when I was 10. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would one day set foot in 60 countries! 

While the goal was definitely random and arbitrary, I wanted to finish what I had set out to do. I’m not extending the goal from here on. I don’t have the desire to visit every single country in the world. I have about another 40 new countries on my bucket list but I’ll also be visiting new cities/places in countries I’ve been to before going forward! 

Thank you to everyone who has supported this journey!! And to God, who took my dream and said I’ll make it come true 20+ years ahead of schedule…my eternal gratitude “for the mighty God has done great things for me and holy is his Name”

60 by 60 —> 60 before 40! 

“The dreams I have today are only a shadow of your dreams for me”

About 8 years ago, I gave myself a goal of visiting 60 countries before 60. I was at 21 countries then. 60 seemed so far away! I honestly didn’t think I would get to it before (age) 40. 

Growing up I would watch people like Samantha Brown go to all these amazing places around the world and dream of one day being able to do the same. Up until I was 18, the only time I left Sri Lanka was to visit Singapore when I was 10. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would one day set foot in 60 countries! 

While the goal was definitely random and arbitrary, I wanted to finish what I had set out to do. I’m not extending the goal from here on. I don’t have the desire to visit every single country in the world. I have about another 40 new countries on my bucket list but I’ll also be visiting new cities/places in countries I’ve been to before going forward! 

Thank you to everyone who has supported this journey!! And to God, who took my dream and said I’ll make it come true 20+ years ahead of schedule…my eternal gratitude “for the mighty God has done great things for me and holy is his Name”

    About Me

    Welcome to my blog and thank you for visiting! Believe it or not this blog is not my full time job! I work 8-5 in Supply Chain and run this blog after work!  I’ve dreamed of traveling the world since I was a child and at 60 countries and counting, I am so grateful to get to live that dream.

    To say travel is my passion is truly an understatement! What I love most about travel is that I get to connect with locals and meet with fellow travelers from around the world. In addition, travel also enables all my other interests like history, photography, architecture, art, music and food! Please feel free to share any posts or leave me feedback on how I can improve. Thank you and happy travels!
