Be sure to drop by and see how it's going (13 days and counting...!). I think it's important to have goals, no matter what size they may be. @Jim- I'm completely open minded, not sure if you read elsewhere but my brother and wife (who is American) live there, and love it (NYC). I'll most probably be there in around 2 years, so be sure to see how my opinions forms (not just on USA). No doubt I'll have met many of your fellow country folk along The Trail before then, I'm sure we'll find a common ground. South America is making me buzz...! @Everyone- thanks for all the emails of support, I'm gradually replying to you all with answers etc but bear with me as I'm inundated with farewells and final bits of planning. But please keep them coming, there's some fascinating stories :) @Annika- thanks for the comments, great words of wisdom from yourself and Walt, I’ll carry them around with me.

I think you'll find that your opinion of our country, and of Americans, will completely change. Now if we could work on the rest of your countrymen... Have a fun trip! -Jim from the USA PS - Don't be scared of South America. If anything, be scared that you're going to love it so much that you'll never leave. The whole continent is amazing.

As long as you have a goal, and the will to reach it, you can do just about anything. Nothing is free, but small sacrifices will take you a loooong way. You sure deserve this trip (it's getting closer with lightning speed!) because you worked hard to do it. Have fun!!
