dream after marriage

One of my trips to Bhadrachalam on boat over the river Godavari
       I had been interested in travelling since my childhood. As a younger daughter of a railway employee, trains has become my comfort homes to visit new far away destinations and learn about living away from home. But travelling as a job was never known to me until I had read about the travel blogs starting a year ago. I felt surprised and fascinated. Thinking of myself doing the same made me wow, but practicality of that in my circumstances made it a far away dream. When the marriage is on cards, thinking of travelling around the world as a career was not a reality for me. 
       Finally, now settled in a married life for past 6 months. New person, new life, went to the other part of world to live with him, leaving my job and country. This change has been fine, life is comfortable. But excitement, fulfilment are not part of my life now. I need something more in life which can make me feel more alive.
       Gone through an article in BBC travel just now, about a girl who left job to travel around world. Reading it made me think what I really want. I has studied about many careers but nothing has fascinated me so much as travelling does. Reading the articles about traveling always make me feel happy. A small dream started in my mind while thinking about these all. Can I still try this option in my life along with fulfilling my responsibilities? Can I take a month in an year of my life and travel around. I consider this as a possibility, although it needs a lot of discussions with family. But feeling that I can make this a possibility. Take care of my responsibilities along with my dreams. I am posting this as a first step towards my dream and wanting to the time it takes for the next post stating about the dream come true. :)
