Itinerary

While planning an itinerary for a trip around the world sounds like fun (and it is), planning 12 months of travel can be a bit tricky. Since we packed all of our clothes and belongings for the year into just two backpacks, we had to strategically pick our destinations  and when we’d go to each. As many others have done before us, we decided to follow the warm weather. From May of 2013 to May of 2014, here is our planned itinerary (subject to change):

Really random, but came across your blog through facebook- we got married in April and left Denver May 1st for a similar trip. We are in Turkey now, and will be spending the fall in SE Asia. Check out our blog, would love to connect along the way if we find ourselves in the same place!
