Updates from the road of The World by Road

Our latest writeup.

This was actually a couple of weeks ago, but I think that I forgot to put a link up.  Jessica Centers at Westword wrote a great followup on us. http://blogs.westword.com/latestword/2007/06/road_trip_around_the_world.php

Our Last Few Days in Thailand

We only have a few days left before we drive on to Cambodia, and there are a lot of things to update everyone on regarding our last several days in Thailand.As far as mosquito bites and fevers go, I am feeling a lot better. I still don’t seem to have much energy and find myself […]

Call for Expedition Members

As many of you already know, we have had the crew fluctuating lately.  Up and down from 3-6 people we are now down to just Steve Bouey and I.  So I thought I would put out this little blog to formally announce that we are looking for crew members.  More than that though, we are […]

Blogs, Blogs, Where are the Blogs?

Over the last week we have had many wonderful things happen.  We met with the nice people at USAID, which then lead us to the nice people at Wild Aid.  Much of our time is spent here in Bangkok taking care of business as we prepare for the less organized countries that we will be […]

The Wild Ride

Crossing New Frontiers

Just as soon as we seem to get used to the country we are in and become good friends with people we have met, it is time to pack up and leave. I guess leading a nomadic life is one of the things you have to deal with when it comes to a trip like this. […]

So you want to know a little about the trucks.

Weekly Update

With in only minutes of our trucks rolling off the ship in Singapore we crossed the boarder into Malaysia. We made a b-line for Malaysia’s capital city Kuala Lumpur to meet up with our new Malaysian friend Wan. After a few days in Kuala Lumpur hanging with Wan and trying to get some much needed […]
