What steps did St. Paul have to take before he became a missionary?

The answer lies in Galatians 1:15: "But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia ..." Arabia was then known as the area to the immediate south-east of the Dead Sea, with its capital Petrea.
It seems that immediately after Paul' conversion, however this did occur, he spoke to no one but went to the city of Petrea. What happened here is not stated. He could have meditated before commencing his arduous mission, or simply asked King Aretas for permission to preach to the gentiles in Syria. That he then returned to Damascus gives some credence to the second possibility.
