Hi buddies !! Fact is, we are all looking for easy way out. Adventure of travelling is alone, with(out) money or means, making friends on way, finding host, relying on his hospitality. In 18th century, there was the Scottish Mungo Park, a doctor like me, whom Royal Geographic Society sent to look at Timbactoo. He went alone with a guide, subsisting on whatever was offered to him by locals. Incidently, he missed Timbactoo by 100 miles. Then there was another, an Englishman, in same century, who travelled in north and Central Africa on a mule, entirely dependant on locals for shelter and subsistence. I think his name was Simon
Coleman.

Follow our forefathers !! Travel for adventure and thrill. And akabridget, gigalo ? Me ? You can guess .
