Preparing For The Trip

Matt and I are preparing for the trip of a lifetime.  We are going through many different websites and books to see which countries will give us the most bam for our buck.  So far we are creating a list of "Would be nice" and "Must Go" countries.  Here is what we have so far"

Would Be Nice                                         
Vietnam
Nepal
Poland
Bulgaria
Spain
Portugal
Malaysia
Slovenia

Must Go
China
Australia
New Zealand
France
Italy
Greece
Ireland
Netherlands

We have decided to save Africa and South America for another trip.  Our plan is to leave in March and be back and ready for school by August. We will begin our trip at Mardi Gras 2011, so posts will begin then.   So 6 months to squeeze in as much adventure as we can possibly handle!  I will be posting on this site daily with pictures of sites, food, accommodations and anything else I think is cool.  Matt and I will be wearing a pedometer and will end each post with how much we walked, as well as cost in USD of the days food consumption, entertainment and living.

Enjoy coming on our around the world trip with us!
