My simple map, traveling with me

 This ABC Wednesdays letter T is for travel. Now it's time to write a bit about our way to do it. And you can get an idea where all this photos come from.

The blue route was from our circumnavigation (westbound) in a thiny sailboat with my husband and our son. The biggest wilderness are the Oceans. 2000 to 2003.

The red route is eastbound, two years (2008 to 2010), with my husband and two kids, mainly on land.

Here you find all the countries I've traveled

 In no order, and not complete, my travel tips:

1. Travel light
2. Travel slow
3. Travel long and slow (and longer)
4. Stay in one place for weeks
5. Take the kids
6. You are your risk manager
7. Make every effort
8. Save before
9. Live on a budget
10. Keep it simple
11. Use local transport
12. Do couchsurfing
13. Sleep in your tent
14. Dream
15. Go simple, go small, but go
16. Be flexible with your plan, direction, way of transport
