Well, it's been a year already since I took my first solo trip. Last year, I was pretty excited about my trip to Egypt, but this year I feel a bit differently about my heading to Jordan.
Initially, I didn't really want to do this trip alone as I sorta learned my lesson from traveling alone in this region, but then no one could go or wanted to go with me and I decided that if I have to wait until I can travel with someone I might miss out on the opportunities to see places I want to see. Plus, one of my five reminders for this year is to remember that I came to the area to travel!
So, I found a tour company (Golden Crown Tours) that was able to put me into a small tour group so that I wouldn't have to pay individual tour prices and I could have some company while traveling in Jordan. I've learned that I'll be joining a group of 4 from Spain, so this might be an all-Spanish tour - good for my language skills... - and hopefully it'll be a good group.
Truthfully, I'm a bit nervous about this trip. There's no logical explanation for my anxiety, but I'm praying and hoping it will be fine once I arrive. Last year, I was only excited, but maybe that was because I was going somewhere I had dreamed of since I was eight. This time, I'm not even sure why I picked Jordan other than it was nearby and I've heard good things about Petra and other sites. So... I'll try to update when I can with pics and thoughts.
Off we go!
Until next time,
