Seriously, I thought of walking from L.A. to San Fransisco, up the coast. Raising my family got in the way, and decades later, by the time I was squared away enough to be free to do it, I was too damn old to make the trip! I regret never having done it.

I'll probably hitch a ride here and there. Thought about a little scooter to. I'm pretty open to the adventure

Hit a bit of Russia and into Eastern Europe. Would like to hit Moscow, too.

or just do kazakhstan .

head over to India, then up to the Stans, Russia

Try to travel with the weather

Perhaps his tale may be of some interest to you. Picked to be a member of the scientific team that was tasked with exploring the region due east of Siberia, a young Stepan Krashininikov set off from Petersburg on foot and walked all the way to the Kamchatka Peninsula. After his arrival he met up with Vitus Berring only to be kicked off of the expedition as being superfluous! (They didn't want another naturalist and Berring felt Krasheninnikov was too young and inexperienced.) Stepan then spent a number of years exploring the Kamchatka Peninsula, documenting it's flora, fauna, geology and cultures. This all took place in the mid 18th century, a time when the Russian peoples knew very little about the far eastern pats of their country. In a way, Stepan Krashininikov's walk was Russia's version of the Lewis and Clark expedition. I have long felt that his story needed telling on the big screen. Please Google up his story for more info if you wish, what I wrote here comes from the memory of an obscure book I read in college over two decades ago. c.

Just read a good book on Lewis and Clark recently, too.

Banana Pancake trail. I'll probably meet up with it early on. Wonder how open the trail through places like Pakistan are today.

with his brother. He and his brother were shot by robbers in Afghanistan. Dave, still alive played dead and survived. His brother died.

Another interesting thing about Dave. He could perform manual tasks faster than any human being that I've ever witnessed. He could do the work of 2 people in half the time. I think his dad holds a record for similar.

maybe go for a record breaker

where there was a big resistance movement?

and an open marijuana market [link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freetown_Christiania|

I'm intrigued by this place

Yes, walk there, from anywhere. lol

The most I did was backpack for five days once. Five of the nicest days of my life.

Would love to see it. i've done some backpacking in Europe,

and i can't wait to do it again.

Maybe they'll have something at their website. Let's see what I can find.

I'm pretty sure it was this one: http://busno8.com/CA.html
