The only sad part of my planning is to read about all the romantic b&bs, sensational restaurants and places to see with a loved one. Traveling by myself I also don't get to experience the nightlife and comfort of being with a friend. Really this is just me fending for myself and learning along the way. Where there is fear there is excitement; where there is trepidation there is wonder. Europe...I am yours for the taking.

Planning a solo trip
So, it has been six days since I decided that I would venture to Europe by myself. I've had a lot of people tell me how proud they are of me and some sharing their concerns about my safety and happiness, but I know that this is something that I have to do for myself. It will put closure on a postponed trip that is laced with a lot of heartache. It will allow me to do some soul searching while exploring another culture and history. More than anything it will let me prove to myself that I can do this...that I am a strong woman and one who can overcome anything. I hope to meet people along the way, pick up some basic Italian/Spanish and just revel in the marvels of history.

Kristie, there is no one more proud of you than me....
The only limitations put on one are those self-imposed.... You ARE a strong woman, so reach out for that star, grab a hold of it, and have one helluva ride.....
Love always,

Well your trip IS full of adventure!!! Don't worry about the romantic B & b's, just make a note of them and you will be back one day. I am a firm believer that this trip will give you opportunities to look inside yourself and see what we see. A wonderful, confident woman whose life holds no limits....
Miss You...Love you Lots..Lorraine
