Yep, what the other guys said: go for it! What's stopping you? If your answer to that is "nothing", then get on your bike - as we say over here - and do it!

Nothing makes me feel more alive than when I'm visiting new places. Doing that with friends is great fun, but also doing it on my own is soooo liberating!

Good luck, I know where you're at with the anxiety thing and pills are not the answer.
