The funny thing about life is: no matter what you plan, things always change. Dan and I have been talking about this year-long trek and climb through Asia for over a year now - and the only 'plan' we've made is the one-way ticket to Bengaluru we purchased about 7 weeks ago. We don't even have a reserved place to stay the first night we arrive! One small element of a 'plan.' And now, two weeks before we go, Dan is on crutches. Really, we couldn't have planned much less. But now that we're uncertain how he'll be walking and if he'll be able to carry a pack on March 3rd, even the one thing might change.
People think we're crazy for traveling like this. For living like this. But now that this one fluke, out-of-our-control thing happened - I have to say, there is a lot less to think and/or worry about if the 'plan' needs to change. Frankly, it's a relief!

throw in the Jersey Dan factor and who knows what and where you to will find yourselves. I'm proud of the both of you for following your dream. I think the only thing "crazy" about the way you are living is if you didn't do this no matter what!!
Long days and pleasant nights
