The Summary

These are some photos and a few journal entries I wanted to share from my first solo backpacking trip. It lasted 9 months. In retrospect, I wish I had been on this site to write a blog in real time and learn from all the people here. Also, I just love seeing that map Travbuddy draws up outlining my route! I'll be adding my photos whenever I find some time so bare with me while I get them them up.
