Dear Family and Friends,

It seems my Irish genes (the ones I blame for my lack of cooking prowess and ability to sunburn in a blizzard) are coming to the fore.  I’m going a’roving!  I’m leaving my stable job and comfortable home for seven months on the road.  Because some things just shouldn’t be left for retirement.  Some of my trip is planned – Christmas in Vienna with Lindsey! May 20th Grand Canyon Paddle Trip! – and some is completely open – February in….Europe!  Somewhere!?!  Generally speaking I’ll be in Europe and North America.  If you’d like to be visited and are offering up your couch, do let me know.  Or if you’d like to join up for a leg of the journey, I’ve already acquired a remora or two (Brianna, Matt – I’m looking at you).  Anyone interested in meeting me in Iceland in March?  Arches National Park in May?  Anyone know a cheap place to stay in Rome?  How about Philadelphia? 

I’m leaving Seattle November 17th and plan to land back in town mid-June-ish.  In order to stay in touch while I am gone, I’ll be blogging at lucysperigrination.blogspot.com.  And any advice on how to take a decent selfie would be appreciated.  Otherwise there will be many pictures of scenery.  Assuming I even remember to take pictures.  My usual e-mail account will continue to be another great way to contact me, and of course Facebook is an option. 
Love,
Lucy
