My Travel Story

by: Matthew Smith Start Date: Dec 16, 2025 - End Date: Dec 15, 2026
I haven’t travelled since I was 16. For most people, travel is something that happens naturally over time — holidays, short breaks, moments away. For me, it’s been years of watching the world from a distance, holding onto the idea that one day I’d get the chance to see it for myself. This journey isn’t about ticking boxes or rushing from place to place. It’s about finally stepping into experiences I’ve waited years for — walking unfamiliar streets, learning from different cultures, and seeing how much the world has to offer beyond what I’ve always known. The route I’m hoping to take spans multiple destinations across Europe, Asia, and island locations — places like Barcelona, Vietnam, Cebu City, Lithuania, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Amsterdam, Malta, Málaga, Portugal, Indonesia, India, and Pakistan. Not all at once, not all in a single trip, but gradually, as opportunity allows. The journey ends in Bermuda.- Bermuda isn’t just another destination — it’s where my family is. Ending the journey there gives this entire experience meaning. After seeing the world, the final step is going somewhere that already feels like home. FundMyTravel exists to help make this long-awaited journey possible. Every contribution goes toward travel, accommodation, and experiences along the way. This isn’t about luxury or excess — it’s about growth, perspective, and finally doing something I’ve dreamed of for years. If you choose to support this journey, thank you. Whether through a contribution or simply by sharing it, you’re helping turn years of waiting into real experiences — and for that, I’m genuinely grateful.
