Road trips are the ultimate freedom in lifestyle; when I go on a road trip, I have a rough idea of my geographical coverage, but I leave the trip mostly unscripted and unplanned letting the journey unfold as circumstances dictate.

Chasing Wilderness: Why Tasmania Just Hit the Top of My Travel List
I have spent nearly 6 months in Australia over the past 20 years of traveling in this part of that world.

Rather than get up with the chickens at 430am in the Thai village I am staying in to catch a van to Suvarnabhumi Airport to catch an 11am flight, I opted to take a a van into Bangkok a day early at a reasonable 3pm departure.
