The one-year mark in the don't-work-no-more phase of my career has come and gone, and I find that I want some structure back in my life. I feel ready to emerge from my cave a little and reconnect, too

LOL, the route I'm taking is actually around 500 miles but I'll probably only do 400 or so. Only being relative, I suppose. I decided on this route partly from a midlife crisis, I think, actually! I'm writing about it on my blog. My first post is a partial explanation: https://xuwriter.wordpress.com/2015/01/26/listening-to-the-call-of-the-wild-when-youre-stuck-in-the-suburbs/ I'll be gone from April 1 - May 11. I was able to get a phenomenal airfare (through Norwegian Air, which has crazy low prices to Oslo, Copenhagen, and Stockholm) and the refugios that serve as accommodation are quite low cost. Still it does add up after being gone so long. Part of it was cost though.
Anyhow, a walking tour to Holy Island sounds AMAZING! I've never heard of the place. Unless it's near Lindisfarne ... oh, Wikipedia tells me it IS Lindisfarne. I would love to go there and now that I know there are walking tours there ... uh oh. This could end up being a problem. :-) Very cool icon. I'll have to do something similar!
Also, I recently learned about $99 fares to Iceland through Wow Air. Now, that's from the East Coast, and it's only one way, but still, that's pretty tempting, too!

Iceland is well worth a visit in itself. I like wild northern places.
