So I'm shopping for plane tickets (YAY!) and it's making me kinda lonely (boo).
All I have right now is a one-way ticket to Helsinki on May 12th. The plan is to travel through the Baltic region (hooray long bus rides and cheap hostels!) - we're going Finland-Estonia-Latvia-Lithuania and ending in Denmark for a couple of days. My girls are flying back home to Iceland on the 26th of May. I need to be at camp June 6th, which leaves a week and a half of dead time for me. Now, I *could* fly back home but it seems like a waste of time and money - I wouldn't be doing anything at home anyway. I will probably hang around Copenhagen for a couple of extra days (I have friends there, and I know at least one or two people who plan on being in Copenhagen at the end of May), and then fly over to Seattle in the beginning of June. But just thinking of all that "alone" time makes me panicky (even though I have lots of conversations with random people when I travel on my own it's still "alone time" because I don't have anyone that I know and trust to just *be* with, and that's hard for me).
It'll be good for me, right?
I am really excited, though. I haven't traveled to new places in forever!
