How to be an independent traveller
Here is a guide that Travelblog made for those who are new to independent travel.

My experience as an independent traveller since 1993

Since 1993 I do independent travelling on my own. I have been to a total of 55 countries on 5 continents. During these times I never had severe problems. In fact I never lost my wallet, flight ticket or something similar or ithey got stolen.

I'm ready to go...husband not so much

I am ready to book a 4-month trip to Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, but my husband is hesitant to spending 4-month overseas. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? Did you go? Was the hesitant spouse/partner happy they did it?
