The World is Small

My constant problem is finding good flight deals. It takes a very long time, and I hate doing it. Currently I am trying to figure out how to travel my own country in my budget. My budget has become smaller. There is a lot in the UK worth seeing, and there are ways to do it if you have a tent and know how to camp out.

I camped in Norfolk on sunday night for one night, and cost me £4 to pitch a tent, that is maybe $7.50 US at the moment. For sure, this is still a little more than a bed in India, however, not a lot more. £3-10 a night for camping in UK. Cook your own food, have a shower, use washing up facilities, all included. The expensive thing is travel, I do not drive, so I have to use trains and buses. Or hitch a ride.

I'm interested in traveling by land from Morocco to Egypt... but every traveler I tell this to says it's a death wish.

Are the scared for good reason?

I think the trip is totally feasible for you Craig. I think time and boredom are the bigger problems. I have now downloaded 30 books and will take about 30 movies with me. The books in this area are only in French, hard to find an English book.

I do not know where you are presently, but German in Platypus Bogota in Colombia may have done the trip.

There are two routes, the upper across Algeria, which is suppose to be closed.

The other is down below and could take a few months. I want to do the trip but do not want to do alone because of boredom, not danger.

Many surfers on the trip.

I also want to buy the BGAN Satellite connection before I go.

I am going to Africa soon, maybe we can connect.

It's odd, several months ago I had next to no desire to saunter through Africa... today I do.

Let's see where the ball drops in a few months...
