Due East

I´m setting off tomorrow towards Eastern Europe, although there´s still a lot of Germany and Austria still to go.

Why does this fill me with a little trepidation? I feel like Frodo and his companions leaving Rivendell but in this case there are not dangers but lots of nice people ahead of me. Let´s just get on with it.

(By the way I would like to say thanks to the nice man in Hugendubel book shop in Munich who gave me his pen to help me write this).
