All I can say is, if this is your dream, don't let fear stop you, and as Lea wrote, especially not fear from others. It's easy for most to stay in the comfort zone, and do what is 'sensible', 'realistic' and 'responsible'. It's your life, and you have to stand up for what you believe in, and do the things that are non-negotiable. Ultimately, what others think of you is none of your business! Good luck.

I read your book a year or so ago. I still haven't let go, but it will happen. I dream of it every day. My excuse is that while I am making good money I should continue to pile it up for the big trip. Question is how much is enough? Rolf,
