Words

A deadline is negative inspiration. Still, it's better than no inspiration at all.

~Rita Mae Brown
Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words. Trust movement.

~Alfred Adler

Attitude

Long-term travel has nothing to do with demographics - age, ideology, income - and everything to do with personal outlook. Long-term travel isn't about being a college student; it's about being a student of daily life. Long-term travel isn't an act of rebellion against society; it's an act of common sense within society. Long-term travel doesn't require a massive "bundle of cash"; it requires only that we walk through the world in a more deliberate way. It's about using the prosperity and possibility of the information age to increase your personal options instead of your personal possessions. It is a prviate choice within a society that is constantly urging us to do otherwise and it begins the moment you stop making excuses, start saving money, and begin to look at maps with the narcotic tingle of possibility.
