So true. I travelled for 18 months in the 1990s, and before I left home I used to wake up at 4am worrying about the types of toilets I might have to use and the type of bed I might have to sleep on. But after camping wild in the Iranian countryside and the toilet being behind a bush I felt I could do anything!
These days I do lots of small expeditions to local mountains, and much of what you say applies to those smaller trips too.

Totally agree.
Adventure doesn't have to be big. It's about doing something without knowing the outcome. It can be trying a new flavour of ice cream, taking a different route home, or taking a bus without knowing the destination.
And in regards to the Iranian toilet, Bill Bryson puts it best; You're not a real man (or woman) until you've taken a shit in the woods.
All the best!
Haha - so true!
