Introduction

I have no clue what I'm doing! OK, let me expand on that. I have no clue what I'm doing with respect to world travel....and blogging!

Have I traveled before? Sure. I don't live under a rock, I live on one! Newfoundland Canada to be exact. I travel the 700 km's between home (Corner Brook) and work (St. John's), every month and join a ship that takes me off the coast of Labrador, the Flemish Cap and Grand Banks, and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. I have been in the Arctic, the Pacific and the Atlantic. I've lived in  cities (Toronto) and small little communities (McIvers). I've visited, if only briefly, every province in Canada except the Yukon.

So how am I a novice inexperienced traveler? Well all of that travel was for work or family or life. None of it has been 100% alone or 100% for pleasure.

Well I'd like to change that. The plan, if only in my head, is to bike around the Netherlands in September. Yup, this September! Clearly, I'm not a very discount traveller! No tickets have been booked, no hotels/b&b's/hostels have been reserved or bikes rented. I should probably get on that.

Step 1: don't chicken out! If there is a second post, I have succeeded at booking/renting/planning something.

Wish me luck!
