What's on your bucket list and what's stopping you from following your dreams?
Would anything change if you improved your health, lost the weight you wanted to and increased your strength?
This summer I'm following a dream I've had for 23 years.
When I read the book, Miles From Nowhere by Barbara Savage, about a
couple's bicycle journey around the world which lasted 2 years, I was so inspired that I began planning my own around the world tour with my boyfriend at the time.
After a while he announced that it was my dream and not his and that he wasn't going. I decided that I would still go around the world but not by bike. I traveled solo on a transformational spiritual journey that lasted a year and a half. This included my 4 week yoga teacher's
training course in southern India, a month long course in Buddhism and meditation in a monastery in Nepal, 3 ten day silent meditation retreats in India and Thailand, various Ashrams, scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef and more.
I still wanted to do a bicycle tour but I always thought that it would be too hard to do alone, and that you needed 2 people to split the weight of all of the camping gear.
A few weeks ago I was talking to my
friend Angie, who is, as Anne of Green Gables would say, "a kindred spirit."
"I don't know what to do for my vacation," I told her. "I'd like to go to the ocean and I've always wanted to see the east coast."
"You can just take the train to Moncton and tour by bicycle," she replied.
She has done solo bike touring. Once the idea was planted I couldn't shake it. Yes, I could do this
alone. I'm a strong cyclist and I'm in great health. A few days later I booked my ticket and started planing my trip!
Finally, I'm following my dream of doing a bicycle / camping tour and I'm so excited!! I'll be going around the Cabot Trail and P.E.I. I think this may be the first trip of many to come.
