My Travel Story

Hi there and thanks for considering. 

My name is Thomas and after a car crash in 2015 my life didn't really turn to the best. 
First of all the car crash where I was going 120km/h and got under a truck. Here I suffered a broken neck, punctured my lung, twisted my spine and had some minor damage to my brain. 
My bad luck started from there... You see I was in the military and I was out for 6 months and of course your supervisors don't like that. Well let's say they showed me when I got back. everything healed quite well and I was happy to do sports again. But I got PTSD while driving and PTSD from the stuff they did. Needless to say I went to therapy got help and a dog met the love of my life and had a couple of good friends to get me through. 
To put this short: woman, dog gone. Most friends married and moved away. And the military basically said that nothing ever happened.
The only things that keeps me going: godchildren, best friend, Buddhism. 

It was always a dream to go to Japan and journey to the temples, meditate and find myself again
