Volume 38How did you choose destinations when you traveled the world?

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Markus Brütsch asks , Gary, when you set out to travel the world (like a high-class bum ? ), what logic did you use for your destination countries and places? Alphabetical? Bucketlist? Ranking World Heritage ranking? Throw of a dice? Thank you for your good work! When I first started, my plan was pretty simple. I went west. I crossed the Pacific Ocean and jumped from island to island as best I could. I never really planned more than a week or two ahead of time.

It took me most of 2007 to cross the Pacific. When I got to South Korea I began going south until I got to Australia.

After a few years, my travels became more opportunistic. I’d go places where I was invited, or I’d manage to go somewhere for a conference and then take side trips in the region.
