Traveling long term – do I really need a one way ticket? I’ve been trying to find this on Google but apparently this question is not that common because I could only find it the other way around. Anyway, I’m going to the US for 2,5 years next month and I’m looking at plane tickets. Return tickets are a lot cheaper than one way tickets, but obviously I can’t book a return ticket for 2,5 years from now….

4×4 trip around Southern Africa I’m planning a trip through South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique between Jan, Feb, March.

Egypt Trip Report (It was awesome!) I thought I’d write a trip report on my experiences in Egypt, seeing as so many of the things I’ve read about the country on this forum have been negative. I’d read a lot of posts and heard from other travellers that the harassment was unbearable and the people were aggressive and pushy. I went to Egypt, preparing myself for the worst, but I can…

Favorite warm/sunny destinations in January that don’t break the bank? I have a big birthday next January and would like to plan for a sunny escape from the Canadian winter (5 days, give or take).

I was given a decent severance, but am still mindful of “non-essential” costs until I get off the market. I know places like…

Best alternatives for my likely cancelled Guatemala trip in two weeks I have a trip booked to Guatemala on the 4th – 19th November.

How to thank a wonderful concierge It’s my last night in Bali, and it’s been an wonderful week.

The thing is that I recently broke up so I will travel alone.
