Where too?

Hmmm, a question that has stumped us for many nights. Keri and I have drawn up a rough itinerary of the places that we want to travel to. Top 4 being Nepal, Thailand, Austrailia and New Zealand. We have also have been entertaining China, Bangladesh and possibly Indonesia. It would seem easy to pick a place and just go for it, but the fact that there are endless areas of interest out there it makes it difficult to set anything in stone. Let me give a little background on our travel plans.

Currently we have a whopping 700 dollars saved up for our 1 year expedition to Asia. With that sort of savings we won't even be able to make it to Los Angeles. We plan on departing some time early '11 (hoping for feb/mar). With such little savings we plan on WWOOFing throughout these countries to save on food and board. Working with the locals on sustainable farming etiquette, we are hoping put this knowledge to use for our future goals in life. For most people this sort of trip is on the boarder of insanity, but we have put behind our doubters and have fully engulfed ourselves on this idea of being glorified vagabonds. Within Nepal, I have hopes for appling my knowledge in rock climbing to the local children of Kathmadu. Having a few contact over there, I think that it will be a fun way to engrain myself in the culture and also with the locals. Who knows if this idea will actually come to fruition, if not so be it, there will be enough to keep us occupied. WWOOFing is an option pretty much anywhere were go.

WWOOFing stands for something like world wide opportuinties on organic farms. What this program basically is, is an opportuinty to work on and organic farm and in return they offer free room and board. Work schedule is usually something like 5hrs a day for 5 days, seems like a pretty good trade off to me. Having this opportunity available to us is a life line for our travels.

Thats about it for today.
