Adventure starts tomorrow

I haven't travelled alone for quite sometime so tomorrow's trip will somewhat be a challenge. I have to admit that I've been quite stubborn because both travel literature and my travel buddy had discouraged me quite strongly from going to that place and yet in the end I chose to heed nobody's advice but my own. All I knew is that I wanted to be there! About this place, Lonely Planet warns: "Travel in _____________ from November to January is a pretty cold, dark and miserable option."

Well, we shall see...
