Heyy
Hey,
My names Jackie, I'm new and excited to meet new people on these boards~ I'm starting to plan a trip to Scotland and Ireland August 13-27, my first backpacking trip, so I'm pretty excited, but going alone, so I'm a little nervous (:
Hope to meet some sweet people here and pick up some tips ~
