This trip would not have been possible without the encouragement and excited cajoling from friends and family. Especially from Elizabeth L. and Kristin K. Dan had encouraged me to look at trips from Con Tiki and after seeing how many cities they hit in a two to three week period, I nearly gave up my plans. I thought "look at all this, traveling, rooms, food, clubs... How am I going to make this work if I want to leave in 1.5 weeks?!" But then, the traveling website http://www.travelindependent.info sent to me by Elizabeth was really the final push I needed to buy my ticket. The Mark Twain quote about regrets 20 years in the future really got to me, really hit home. Elizabeth sent the same quote to me in a Facebook message, and I knew it was meant to be!
