Bio
We feel very blessed as we embark on a one-year trip around the world! After years of talking turned serious about a year ago, October 2011 became the target date for departure. We'd been planning, researching and gathering suggestions from friends and family non-stop, and we can't wait to experience and share our adventure.
We're deeming this extended trip "glackpacking" because we're in our 30's and plan to spend more time in nice (but reasonably priced) hotels and guest housing, rather than the more popular (and cheaper) hostel option.
"Glackpacking" is a combination of "glamourous" and "backpacking." Much like the more well known "glamping", we plan to have some perks along the way, but are also willing to get a bit dirty and be adventurous.
