Paul Redcastle
Posted at 22:01h, 04 Mayhaha, nice! give it a try – i can offer you a place to stay in both places. BUT, don’t distract yourself too much with crossing off points. As we say in German ‘Der Weg ist das Ziel’ (challenge #2: find out what that means). Greetings from Munich
Raúl González
Posted at 18:11h, 05 MayAwesome project guys!
Since you asked for challenges i would pitch mine:
Brief
Since your already are traveling around the world and will continue to do so for a long time, perhaps you could make a campaign about preserving the natural and cultural places you visit, now days all the awareness on making our planet a better place is more than necessary.
No restrictions whatsoever, make the best creative decision of it under the circumstances you are at the moment (materials, platform, message, etc)
Best of luck on your trip!
Saludos desde México DF.

Posted at 14:08h, 27 AugustYou guys are living mine and my husbands dream. All we want is to travel and experience LIFE around the world. I have a question though, how are you sustaining yourselves? Are you still working somehow or did you save up beforehand? Thank you for sharing your beautiful journey with us!
howfarfromhome
Posted at 08:58h, 30 AugustBrilliant, yes you must! Regarding finances – when we decided that we were going ahead with our journey, we immediately started a separate savings account and put all savings we had up to that point in there, and then became very strict with our spending, saving every last cent. All work we’re doing along the way is volunteer creative work that allows us to create things we love. Good luck!

Besides, of course, I could introduce you to plenty of other beautiful things, including giant underground wine cellars dug out of rock and aperitivo on the hills. Let me know 😉

Posted at 21:05h, 23 September1. Eat breakfast (with all-you-can-pour fresh maple syrup) at a Cabane-à-Sucre (“Sugar Shack”) in Quebec, Canada. (As a note, these are only open seasonally, in the Spring, during “Sugar Season”.) There are some all over Maple territory in Eastern Canada and New England, but I think the ones in QC are probably the best.
2. Try the fresh cider at Apple Hill in California, during Apple Season (the Fall). I honestly think the apple cider they make there is the best in the world (I keep looking for something that can compete with it, and I keep being disappointed).
3. Visit rural New England in the Fall (it’s mixed forest, and it’s amazing in October). Random Google Pictures: https://goo.gl/QLfoYS

Living in Alberta, Canada I have the following challenges for you when you eventually get here:
1. Eat prairie oysters
2. Walk with dinosaurs in the Alberta Badlands
3. Zip down the Canada Olympic Park (COP) in Calgary
4. Take a selfie with the bob sleigh from the movie “Cool Runnings” at the COP in Calgary
5. Drive the Ice Fields Parkway between Banff and Jasper
6. Visit a small town rodeo
And if you need a place to stay just let me know!

Posted at 21:13h, 30 NovemberMight I suggest your train through the alps be the Glacier Express (glass roof), it also happens to end in Zermatt which is one of the viewpoints from which you can see the Matterhorn 🙂 Quite a view!

Posted at 19:19h, 02 DecemberHi Guys,
Amazing list, and I must say that I discovered a bit of Sydney thanks to your blog 🙂 (I recently moved to Sydney from Pakistan).
I would like you guys to visit Pakistan and take the Karakoram Highway from Islamabad to Khungerab Pass! Do a google image search and you’ll know what I am talking about 😉
I know how everyone goes EEEK when they hear Pakistan, but I will only ask this, form your own opinions of Pak :). Contact Mike Horn (https://www.instagram.com/mikehornexplorer) and Brandon Stanton (https://www.instagram.com/humansofny) they both recently came back from Pakistan and can better guide you.
You’ve got a lot of time to plan this trip, Its winters in Pak now and major sections of the highway are closed during these times. Best time would be the summers.
Cheers and keep exploring!
P.S. I LOVE your blog !!! :))

Posted at 19:24h, 16 JanuaryYour journey is inspiring and wonderful.
I currently live in Oman in the Middle East and if you are heading to Dubai you must certainly travel onto Oman. There is so much to do and beautiful things to see. Its entirely different to Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
I would recommend desert camping, visiting the Grand Mosque, spending a night at the top of Jabel Akdar, watching turtles hatch on the beach, exploring the many wadis. Google Wadi Shab it is fantastic!
If you decide to add Oman on to your trip we would be very happy to lend you the spare room!
Good luck for the remainder of your trip.

Posted at 00:04h, 03 JanuaryHi!
I’m envious, sounds & looks amazing!! Definitely having a look at your list and compiling one for myself from here – if you don’t mind. I’d have to get cracking as a photographer though!
Suggestions:
How about whirling with the whirling dervishes of Konya – home of Rumi in Turkey’,
the Monastery at St Catherine’s in Egypt – close to the site of the Burning Bush where God spoke to Moses (actual Bush is still in existence)
