Few Plans...

OK... so it may seem that the blog does not work as it should. Wellllll maybe a bit. But it is all due to the fact, that I don't have time to prepare a proper draft version of the plan.

So maybe I will just now mention the plans I already have and that need taking care of and publishing on the blog in the right way. First let's start with the big ones, but still possible to realize within a year from now:

1. North-West of Spain. I mostly have in mind Galicia, Asturia, Cantabria and Pais Vasco. I don't expect to have time for any visits to Castilla y Leon, or to La Rioja, though this could be also taken into consideration - we will see during the planning.

2. North-East of Spain. Meaning Cataluna, Arragon, Navarra and then possibly La Rioja.

3. Andalucia - too much to see there to add something more ;) Though I might consider Murcia here.

4. Valencia, Murcia, Castilla La Mancha.

5. Extremadura, Castilla y Leon and maybe a bit of Portugal.

ufff - 5 years for spain ;) With the 1 and 3 being the crucial ones. I will possibly start in the nearest future with the plan no 1.
Or maybe I will start with the small ones, those which will be only one weekend long. And here we have:

1. Szczeliniec Mountain - finally this should be done, as we have been "walking around" this topic for a year now. I think this trip should also include some rocks from the side of Radkow, or Polanica Zdroj - this depends on if we will do it in one day or two. I'd prefer two days, though I will still need time to iron shirts on sunday ;)

2. Czech Rock City in Tieplice and around there - though I have been there when I was pretty young, I would still like to go there once again. Think it is even possible to do it in one day, though maybe two days would be better.

3. Czech side of Karkonosze mountains - since I took a pick on them while being in Karkonosze in May, I can't help it - I just NEED to go there. They looked amazing from Sniezka Mountain. But this is definately 2 or even 3 days trip. So maybe for the next long weekend ;)

4. Some castles around Wroclaw like Czocha, Kamieniec Zabkowicki, Chojnik, Bolkow... This should be thought in a way to see at least 2-3 castles in one day.

For thouse less realistic, I would only mention New Zealand, Tasmania, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Colombia and Venezuela, Latin america around Panama, Honduras, Nikaragua... Caribbean islands including Puerto Rico, Cuba, Haiti... yeah - this is definatelly less realistic... but who knows, eh?

Making plans for the brand new blog...

I have always been making plans. It's not that I am not spontaneous and that I have everything planned... But... well maybe I do have many plans and I get nervous when something or someone is not sticking to my plan, but that's not the point.

The point is that I making plans takes me usually more time than realization. Sometimes I spend so much time making up plans, that I end up having almost no time for doing what I set out to do. Other thing, probably worse, is that even though I get so much fun making those plans, I end up bored as hell while making them happen and usually drop them in the middle. So much for sticking to the plan myself... And so much on focusing on the goal.

But the worst thing is when I come up with a brilliant plan for something and then I put it off for like... never. And this is what I decided to fight with and this is how I decided to fight:

I came up with idea for this blog when I was making plans (duh!) for the next year's (once again DUH!) trip to Spain. Since I have had this plan in my mind for 2 years now, I think I really need to make it happen and I need something that will help me go through with it. And so the magical answer would be: make a PLAN for a PLAN - tah-dah!!!

As stupid as it may sound I really think that I can make it work.

I have decided to document the plans here, with emphasis on how they evolve and how I make them come to pass. Think it is the first step to end up actually REALIZING them. And I need to make myself realize at least those travelling plans - just for the sake of my sanity ;)

The plan for the plans is the following:

1. Draft version of the plan - when, where, more or less how and what.

2. Evolution - from the most general to the most detailed way.

3. Progression in realization - what I managed to do to make it happen

4. The final realization as the way of saying THE PLAN WORKED!

At the moment I have 2 big plans and couple of small ones. I hope I will manage to realize the plan of planning for them ;)

And so maybe I am not spontaneous. Maybe it's because I always end up worrying that I lack this or that to do something else.. blah blah blah... typical, I know. But who said that it's so cool being spontaneous when it apparently does not work for me ;)

Besides I can end up being spontaneous during the trip (yeah right :P) but first I need to make it happen.

So... fasten your seatbelts cause we are starting... THE PLANNING ;)
