Getting started







Hi



so I'm starting my blog and don't know if anyone will read it. I'm travelling to London-Spain-Morocco-London and home. I don't expect anything too exciting but if anyone is interested in what my experiences are like walking the Camino (pilgrimage) routes in Northern Spain or being in Marrakech, trekking in the Atlas mountains of Morocco and riding a camel in the Sahara or catching theatre and god knws what else in London then this may be of interest.






There may be several days between posts as there will be times when there is no internet computer around and I'm not carrying any wi-fi device even if wi-fi was available. I leave in 8 days and I am now just finishing getting organized. Not taking much with me cause I like travelling light and in Spain I will be walking from village to village carrying all my stuff on my back. I don't want to carry more than necessary obviously.






Kinda fun getting organized but that finishes this weekend and I am so looking forward to going. Amazing what you can do over the internet. booked a hostel in Marrakech and went on a forum (lonely planet thorn tree) and found out where in Marrakech to buy some basic I will need when I get there.Did I mention that I am getting excited?






Gotta tart up this blog and add some colour. the pictures are of home - the starting point and me figuring out how to add pictures. works here but I wonder in Marrakech what the keyboard will look like. many learning experiences ahead of me. should be interesting.

    Hope you enjoyed London and got caught up on your sleep - looking forward to hearing about the next "steps" so to speak. Take good care.
