I've read this book years ago, and am going to re-read it as I plan to do some traveling and want to do it on the cheap.

    This book gave me some practical advice and input about putting together my recent 6 month journey. Plus, it inspired me and kept my outlook fresh and positive.

    What can I say? This book has inspired me and I look forward to my own great vagabonding adventure.

    Helpful, but it reads like the kind of essay you wrote as a kid in school where you didn't know what to write so you padded it with all sorts of extra things like quotes that were nice-sounding, but had no business being there or lots of rhetorical questions. I was expecting more direction suggestions of ideas of what to do rather suggestions of more books to read or websites to go read.

    When I tell people that my career is "adventure seeker", I always get mixed stares. Either they are interested in how to, or are totally confused by the fact that I don't live with the grain of society.
    I agree with a lot of what Rolf Potts says in his "how I did it" book, one of which is basically, you don't have to be rich to travel abroad, you could clean toilets for a year, saving enough money to get to the next place.
    I've already come to terms with the fact that I will be working until the day I die anyway, why not do and see what makes you happy?
