How to pick from what the world has to offer-


Although we didn't want to be locked into a set itinerary, unfortunately we are quickly finding out that open ended flights are no longer an option (Thanks for nothing Osama). Therefore, we have come up with a rough draft so that we could move forward and purchase our plane tickets for the year. With that said, this is our plan (or lack thereof) and I guess we'll see how much this changes as our adventure marches on...

1. Start south of the border in a wonderful country called Peru. What we do there is unknown except, of course, to trek among the llama's and awe-inspiring Inca ruins of Macchu Pichu. From Peru, we head to Bolivia, Chile and Argentina, land of the Tango.

2. Leave Argentina for South Africa, a unexpected but exciting layover none the less. Lions and tigers and waterbucks oh my (yes, those really exist).


3. A stint in Sri Lanka and then on to India the enormous land of chaos and color and culture. Don't know where to start here so what the hell, we'll wing it. Stay tuned for more on India.


4. Moving on to Nepal. Here we will hopefully trek among the best of them (k-maybe not to the summit of Everest) but at least to a couple of tea houses in the Annapurna circuit. Yes, we may even get a few photos of the furry, yet elusive Yetti.


5. Finally, Southeast Asia where we will wander from Bangkok to Laos, China, Vietnam, Cambodia and to our final stop, Thailand, where we will end this crazy madness to sit on the beach, drinking mango shakes, contemplating the crazy things we've seen as the sun sets and possible wonder if we truly do want to leave it all behind to dive headfirst back into the "real world".
Stay tuned...
