RE: Ten Reasons Why World Travel Is The Actual Worst
Ha ha, I do appreciate you being realistic about the negatives. My wife and I, with our dog recently drove from Mexico to Panama and experienced much of the above. But I'd say the more you research, the cheaper it can be, and the better chance you have of avoiding the many negatives you mention here. Our trip wasn't perfectly efficient or cost affecitive, but it was awesome! I'd never do it again, but I'm glad we did it once.
Those are seriously the best trips though! You say that you wouldn't do it again now, but in a few years, you'll forget the bad things (hopefully!) and you'll just think "Wow, that was a crazy adventure, right?" and before you know it, you guys are cycling across New Zealand!
That's been my experience at least. I just dove 8K miles from North Carolina to Alaska, and I couldn't wait to get out of that gd car! But sitting here 6 months later, and I think "Wow, that was really amazing....I wonder how far it is from Alaska to Labrador?"
