sta travel

after reading a little bit about matt harding and drawing some inspiration for my own 'round the world trip, i found out the agency he used to book his flights (and maybe the hotels/hostels too): sta travel.

they are an agency with over 30 years of experience, and specialize in helping young people in world wide adventures. they're huge, they're everywhere, and they seem to be pretty helpful.

i just called them yesterday for the first time, told my agent (todd) about my plans and itinerary ideas, and he's working on it right now, so i can have some more in depth info on everything...

once i have the itinerary figured out, i have to check on the visa requirements for all the countries; then work on dates (it's gonna take a lot of research to decide on the length of stay for each country, 'cause that's gonna depend on how much i'll be willing to get to know them, the costs of accommodation, eating and traveling there, etc); then decide where to stay, if hostels, hotels or couch surfing (more on that later)...

gosh, it seems i'm already running out of time...
this is getting more exciting by the day!
