So. 2010 was a wonderful year.
I managed to sell my house and give the money away. Yeah... good causes!!!
But. No fool me. I decided the endowment mortgage policy that I had paid into to for so many years was to be mine. And its worth 30K. And I have saved over 20K.
So I can retire. Well, for a few years. And I can go on holiday. But, me being me and me being a writer and not a fighter means that I will need to share my experiences with someone. This is where this site comes in… and hopefully I can make you laugh.
I have booked my PhileasStrongie through to Beijing. Flights paid; hostels booked; deposits depsoited…deposotied… paid. But hey, it gets complicated here... cos I get as far as the Baltic and come back... then wander around the UK for a few months and go back to where I was in the Baltic and then carry on and dont stop til I go all the way round... maybe... inshallah health.
And my aim is to walk 1000k. Not all the way of course.. but my pedometer is set from so many walks into town and seems to be accurate...
I gotta get visas; I gotta get insurance; I gotta get the logistics of getting from Tallinn to St Petersburg and then on to a hotel somewhere in a city that is about as foreign and strange as it can be…
So pleased to have said sod off to Corals. Given up as much responsiblity as possible and.. well the rest is just another blog.
