It's About the Journey

As Dan and I discussed doing this blog, not just about the trip itself but about the planning process as well, I was reminded of the saying that goes "It's not the destination, but the journey." Well, it IS about the destination(s) in this case, but it is also VERY much about the journey.

Planning is half the fun and joy that Dan and I get out of all of our trips. Learning new things, research, discovery, the conversations that we have together, the conversations we have with other people etc. all add so much to the overall experience of a trip like this.

We have already watched many videos, purchased some travel guides (more on that later), talked with friends and done a bunch of internet research both together and separately. We have already had a BLAST with it and it has opened up opportunities for us to share our dreams and hopes with each other.

Priceless.

So as we continue on this journey, we will share with you our resources, thought processes and decisions and ultimately we will share our trip via posts and photos. If nothing else, this will be our keepsake of the trip of a lifetime!
