Another crazy sceme - World UE trip for 2007.
< on 8/17/2006 11:27 AM >

With rising fuel costs resulting in rising air fares I am considering a last big trip for next year. And well, this one is a doozy. A 6 to 10 month round the world trip starting in Europe and involving buying a campervan to explore and do UE full time before selling that and buying a second van in AmeriCanadia and doing full time UE there. With an eventual end in Australia with at least 2 weeks of full time UE there as well. Anyone interested in joining me for all or part of the trip?

It will obviously be expensive. Not everyone's cup of tea. Some people may only want to do the Europe part of it or Australia or AmeriCanadia.

Just something to ponder while I get more detailed plans on line. Thinking of heading off in late May just before the air fare hike. This gives people time to save and compile a list of places they want to see. The plan is totally flexible now on almost all aspects of it. 2007 is still a long way away.

Ideas? Suggestions? Willing victims?

That would be an absolutely incredible trip. I'll start buying lottery tickets and, if by the grace of God I win enough to quit my jobs and pay off my house between now and May of 2007, I'll definitely be there. Seriously.

And if that plan falls through, I'll resolve myself to live vicariously through the many, many pictures you'll have to take and post here! Mass amounts of pictures are not optional, by the way!

:o) ...so jealous.

Well here is my basic plan so far:
http://www.urbanadventure.org/main/rtex/
I have been thinking about this for ages and figure, well I'm not getting any younger. Then last night Qantas announced another fare hike due to fuel costs. So I figure in a few years it may become to expensive.

The aim is to explore, meet fellow travellers and to do it within many people's affordability.

Yeah D, I know I missed out on some urban exploration at OPEX, but that's no big deal. My aim was to meet people and do some light UE. Travelling takes a lot out of you, especially when you are older and not as fit as I once was. Hence I was happy to skip a few explorations and relax a bit. I expect on such a trip as I am planning that a fair amount of time will be spent relaxing, recuperating and planning.

Dang, thats one pretty ambitious scheme but I applaud you with envy. Looks like you put some thought into it that would be the tour of a lifetime. Hope you can pull it off.

Heck no dude. Like I said at OPEX, we're not getting any younger.
I'd like to see as many people come on this one as possible, so it may be less than a year long because the shorter the trip, the less money it takes to do it. So I'm really interested in people's input.

I am talking the UE trip of a life time here. Exploring many sites around Europe, heading over to Chernobyl, taking in the huge drains and costal bunkers in Australia, heading to Gunkajima in Japan and UEing in AmeriCanadia. The biggest hurdle for most people will be air fares so I figure well if you are going to head across to Europe or Australia that you may as well get a round the world air fare.

Right now the plan is flexible, and there will obviously be the opportunity for people to join parts of the trip. I realise that not everyone will be able to do a big trip, finances and time off work are a big issue. My main aim now is to put this out there as a concept for people to look at and say either "yeah, tis is for me so I had better start planning and saving" or "No, that's not my cup of tea." or "Bugger, I'd love to do this but I won't have the money for all of it, I wonder if I could join just this part..."

Late May 2007 is still 10 months away so that gives people enough time to decide if they want in, and to start saving. I realise it is a big life style change to suddenly have to start saving money, hence the early advice.

If by May people have save less tan what is needed for a full year trip then it is easy to just make the whole thing shorter.

Live your life like it really makes a difference.
