I might have mentioned I'm the only female, of a group of 10. I only know two people on the trip, and only one is considered a good friend. The majority of the group is from the east coast, and I live in Seattle.
These are merely minor concerns.
The real fears revolve around my Lyme disease. Me telling you that doesn't mean much of anything. And frankly, it feels a little weird to be telling you all this. But, this is my life. And these are the things I think about while planning and preparing for this trip.
