3 weeks to go

I've been lucky enough to take the time I need to try and plan out the direction of travel I am going to take. I've contacted many people through some websites and have some people that want to give me a place to stay for a couple of nights as I travel.
I feel very privileged to be able to stay with people who want to experience a cultural exchange.
I have people in Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and Tunisia. At this time it's a bit presumptuous to expect that in March people know what they are doing and whether they can take me in. I will contact them when I'm on the road.
I am offering the same to Annett from Germany when she stays with me through Christmas.
Working on my backpack and how much weight I want to take with me. I thought I might be able to get away with a 35 litres and even fantasized about getting everything in a carry on...that was dreaming in technicolour, let me tell you.
Ideally, I would prefer someone to stay in my place while I'm gone, but that hasn't worked out.
Thanks for everyone for being the wind beneath my wings...Hugs Barbara

  1. Barb, I have just figured out how to "follow" you - I'm still a ludite when it comes to blogging. Anyway, I was going to add your travel dates to my calendar. Did you ever get your bag to 35 kgs? LOL
