May catch up with you later in the year, mid July, as I attempt to complete the trail from New York State northbound.
Best of luck with it!
Bring your own tea bags, American tea sucks!
I live in Somerset and would be interest to know how you traveled to the AT
After I do my thru, I plan to replicate John Hillaby's trip that he documented in the wonderful book "A Walk Through Britain."
(I love your part of the island. One of my degrees is in medieval Celtic Studies, with a concentration on the Celtic British.)
Your own thread has some nice ideas. For those who haven't seen it yet:

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there. --Rumi
While I love the US for it's wide open wild spaces, I miss the UK for public bridleways and hiking paths just about everywhere...always easy to take a short 2-3 mile walk at lunch by the river, or through the fields. Not so much here!
I live in Ireland but regularly do uk hikes. Just finished wainwrights coast to coast across England that was my favourite so far. Hoping to do the south west coastal path starting in may

You see, I want to hike a lot but it's just finding people to with either my friends have different vacation days than me or they're not interested/busy.. :'(
Yeah I have my brother and two friends I hike with in UK but if there busy or I'm hiking in Ireland I just hike on my own. I'm happy with my own company and its nice starting and finishing etc when I want to. Having said that it's allways nicer to hike with friends

From Denmark, but will start in the end of March, got visa and all done, so just counting down to I get off from work in 277 days
Thinking of flying to New York as its so expensive to book flights to Atlanta and then take train or greyhound to Atlanta
I know it's an old post! But I'm wondering who else is going March / April 2018. .and how you're getting from A2B etc..
Going again this year, but will take a plane from Copenhagen to New York and from there to Atlanta
Will the stay in Atlanta at a random motel near Sandy Springs as I will do supply and all that there
Then take an Uber or something next morning to Amicalola
Will go from Denmark the 28. March and start in Amicalola the 30 March
Take the train.
I have multiple cross country Greyhound trip experience and I've done Amtrak twice from Virginia to NYC after seasons working in Shenandoah NP. The train is an absolute joy compared to the bus.
You can also take the train all the way to Gainesville and be that much closer to Springer.
