Boban1: Seems as a rather interesting and challenging idea ...
Thanks for you reply..Boban...doesn't answer my question..but has it planted a seed??? Surely this big wide world which has so much to offer can't be that elusive, costly or restrictive!!!...the challenge is to experience as much as possible for as little cost as possible and see if we can survive and record it!!..a small group of men from different backgrounds with different skills and different outlooks...would be interesting!!
I hope your idea comes true and I wish you find a group of men to realize your idea. Men these days are so lost as for their goals and priorities... it is time to come back to roots a bit and discover males inside you. Good Luck! Share with us...

Hi Aswina...thanks for your reply. I think my problem comes with age..and it may be mid life male menopause!!!!! I have this deepest desire to experience everything this world has to offer..I need to get out of this box.. which is Wonthaggi..and would love to do it with men who are like minded and feeling the same way. I have children whom live with their mother and which I love dearly..but I need to find myself and make myself happy before I can make others happy...Thanks for your positive support!!
I think the best time for that is coming...and you are just lucky man, because you get know what you want just now. Get out of the boxes... is only way for us, both genders over 40. Men are luckier a bit, they can do that earlier, but women live longer ... I will support you and if you want to discuss any idea, I am here, if I can, I motivate Have a nice Friday.

This idea is not about drifting aimlessly!!!! Its about strangers from different cultural backgrounds...exploring the world and getting the most out of it. Combining all our differences and making us better people,,then sharing those experiences to help others maybe...???

Travelling is the most marvelous experience one can have in life, that is for me.
Once I have had my children out school (with their degrees) which was my priority number one, then I did start travelling.
It can be done alone or with friends and no matter the gender. Besides you will meet many wonderful people and you will keep comunication with them.
And yes, take a camera with you, double battery and enough memory.
