I've been thinking about this for a long time now ...
Ever since I departed from Amazon, it has always been my goal to go on a long journey to explore parts of the world that fascinate me. In part because I feel age and responsibility creeping up on me, I've decided that this might be one of a few chances in my life to do this. After traveling in Asia on two separate trips now, I've been touched by the cultural experiences there and have decided that I should go back; but this time, I will give it proper time to dive deep into the great cultural scene and the rich history of the region.
So my current plans are to depart towards the end of October.
I would fly into
Seoul, Korea and then move to
Beijing, China. I would then slowly move south through
Shanghai,
Hong Kong and many of the places in between, taking side trips further inland. Eventually, I should arrive in
Vietnam and move south through Vietnam and
Laos towards
Cambodia. The plan then is to go through Cambodia and
south of Thailand, possibly going through
Malaysia and
Singapore. After that, I plan to move north going through
northern Thailand and possibly to
Myanmar and
Bangladesh or back through China towards
India. I would then circle India along the coasts starting from the east, going through
Sri Lanka and into the west.
Eventually, the plan is to end up in
New Delphi, and perhaps at that point it would be the end of my trip.
I would love to hear comments and suggestions of any sort: from places to go to travel experiences in any of these locations.
Also, I welcome any of those interested in joining me at any part of this trip to come forward :)
