Longboarding across the USA #2 / broken arm / without money / alonesteemCreated with Sketch.

Welcome all the Steemian friends to my story of longboarding across the USA alone with broken arm and almost without money.

This is chapter #2 :

As I mentioned in chapter one before actually started my trip I had few problems :

1.I didn't had any longboarding experience. Not counting when I was 11 years old I had skateboard.
2.I didn't had any savings to make it happen.
3.My longest solo trip was like 4 days, so I needed to learn to be alone at least for a few months.
By the way I have broken my arm by practicing longboarding(just 10 days before flight to SF)

This is me in San Francisco one day before going on the road. With my new longboard.

I remember when I posted this photo on Facebook, everyone told me that it's a sign. A sign showing what I must not go to USA.
But I was so determined about this trip and I thought to myself :
Okay, my arm is broken. But not the leg. I can survive without arm. If it would be leg, when I'm done. But it's not.
Life keeps going on.

So without telling anyone I flew to USA. My flight was Vilnius - Milan - Ataturk - San Francisco.

When I bought longboard, I only had 200 dollars when I went on the road.

People suggested me to make a gofundme campaign. I thought :
No one will back me. But still I made that campaign. It was made for buying a ticket back to Europe.
Here it is.

As you can see I recieved more than I needed. I was so blessed with this.
I just understood one thing :
When you believe in yourself, it's way more easier others to believe in you.

That's it for this time.
