I'm thinking of visting the UK next year.
I seem to be doing fine, as long as I don’t do anything too challenging. The plan is that we’ll carry on as is until presumably November sometime, when I’ll come home for ablation surgery. Canada and Spain are still on, though we’ll shorten Spain once I get my date.
Taiwan is out for this winter though. Maybe next year, if things go well. No sense going if I can’t even take another shot at Taroko Gorge.

1 year agoHave you ever cycled up Taroko - to where the road reaches over 3,000m?
