Angkor Wat is the most famous and well preserved temple in the Angkor temple system in Siem Reap, Cambodia.
Other temples include Angkor Thom:
Or the Tomb Raider temple:
Despite this, I've been getting tired and bored of traveling. I'm on week 6.
I think it comes from not having a goal for my travels and not knowing what I'll be doing when I get back to reality and back to home in the United States.
I'm tired of traveling because I don't have a goal of what I'm traveling for. (I'm not on a 2 week trip meant for un-winding from work. No, I left my job and I don't have a solid plan for life and I can travel for months or even years until my savings runs out.) If my travels had a deadline of when to stop, it might allow me to enjoy the limited amount of time even more.
I find that I don't do well without overarching goals and deadlines, and I need one for traveling... It also has to do with me not having a job and not really knowing what I'll be doing when I get back. I think that just makes life overall a bit hopeless. Because when I'm traveling, I'm not really working towards those things related to career development and online classes, where-as if I was at home all day, I probably would. So maybe that's why traveling made the hopelessness even more pronounced. This is one aspect that I didn't think of before...
I think working on side projects while traveling will help. But I would like to have a solid and more detailed goal for traveling too, in addition to "have fun, learn about other country's history and culture"
Angkor Wat, tell me your secrets. What can I learn from you? What can I learn from being here.
