I should have purchased our airline tickets in October...when they were going for about $400 round trip from Miami to Heathrow. I waited too long and now they are almost $1,000 for one round trip ticket. $^*%#@!!
So....I decided to get another part time job to offset the costs of this trip, which will probably total about $6k. That's being conservative. Really. Now you understand why I'm chasing sponsorships in the form of free hiking boots and/or other hiking gear.
I'm pleased to say that I've landed a job that I really, really enjoy and while at one point I considered finding a job just to fund the walk and then not returning to it, that is no longer the plan. I'm back in the financial saddle and its a great view. I love this kind of work so it doesn't seem like work. After an 11 hour day, I'm still happy and ready to hit it again tomorrow.
Now the real problem is....when in God's name will we train!?!?!?
