Alas, my honey decided that he can't financially justify my planned trip to Ireland.
Yes, I'm disappointed, but such is the life of someone bitten by the travel bug. You can't expect others to fully understand or be able to comply with your craziness, passion, however you want to put it.
Because of my own strapped wallet, I have had to scrap my original plan to see the Irish countryside and instead will be venturing solo to good ol' London in April. Different, yes, but nevertheless exciting, especially since I'll have the opportunity to see and catch up with old friends.
As a traveler, you have to be willing to not only compromise to accommodate the itineraries and interests of others, but you also have to be willing and flexible enough to accommodate unexpected changes that are inevitably going to happen to your own itinerary, no matter how well planned it might be.
My Ireland trip is not canceled — simply postponed indefinitely at the moment. I will go and see the Irish countryside and it will be lovely. Just not this May. And I'm OK with that.
