As you can see I’ve planned for some pretty substantial journeys, I’m unsure if this is wise, so any advice on that would be great. I’ve left the actual activities in the days pretty blank, this is because A) I need to do more research and B) I don’t like to overload itinerary’s in actual places, I like to have a wonder, people watch.
​
Thank you very much, very excited to be coming back!
