As many of you know by now I am bipolar and have been severely crippled by the illness for the last 15years. After a lot of treatment I am now stable and doing well.
I am travelling to the USA next year 2016 for a few months for three reasons.
1. I have never been able to travel due to the limitations my illness placed on me.
2. I want to visit people living with bipolar all over the world but the USA to start. I want to learn their stories and try to understand how people live well with their illnesses, I have already started this process in Ireland.
3. I want to make a Vlog of the experience of travelling while having bipolar with all the challenges that it brings (For example, I will have to bring about 1000 tablets with me, that will be fun going through customs) and documenting the experiences of others to share with the world. I don’t believe anything similar currently exists.
I guess what I want to achieve is to capture real life examples of those living with bipolar from all walks of life all over the world. I believe by doing this we can learn some real insight into living well with mental illness.
I will have enough savings for a short trip, but not enough for vlogging equipment and visiting as many people as I would like.
If you can support me in anyway that would be great, I will in return share all my adventures with you through daily blogs and vlogs. Please let me know your thoughts and any advice.

I have set up a gofundme page but even if that doesnt work out I still plan on travelling and recording stories on a smaller scale.
