Everyday, it's a-getting closer, going faster than a roller-coaster

Just under 6 weeks to go now. I'm starting to get a bit nervous. Nervous about money and practicalities and loneliness and about my eyes. I'm heading off to Europe for 3 months and it seems that on average my sight is going alltogether for a few hours - day about once a month. I am a bit scared that I will be stuck in some country unable to see... but that isn't going to stop me. I am going to travel to all the countries I want and face this adventure head on. I can't wait.

I have hardly any money but I think the way I'm going to manage this trip will be by getting into the groove of www.couchsurfing.com It's such an awesome philosophy. The premise is to stay with people from around the world, and in exchange host people when they come to your city. I am excited about having this prospect afoot. I am actually really excited about hosting people when I get home!

I am hoping to post here while I am travelling so people from home can read how I'm going and so that I have a record of my trip.
