I originally posted to this forum way back in 2007 and wow, how things have changed in my life! I never made it in 2008, as I had hoped. This time, it is going to happen and I will be doing the Camino Frances in April 2010, solo. There is a slight chance a friend of mine might join me, but at the moment, I am not counting on her. I will be using the Camino as a start to a six month RTW adventure visiting friends in England, Ireland, Sweden, Japan, Mexico and possibly Argentina. I will be visiting family in Italy, and also venturing into Africa (still undecided about what country), India and Thailand. My plan for the countries where I don't know people, will be to spend a week sight-seeing and a week volunteering at a local organization serving those who are less fortunate. I plan to travel until I run out of money.
Looking forward to participating here on the forum as I work on preparing my mind, body and soul for this adventure.
