I just came across a blog by traveler Wandering Earl, who set off on a three-month trip to Asia in 1999. He’s still on the road 4,294 days later.

He arrived in Ljubljana a few days ago via rail from Vienna, so check out his blog and say ‘Hi’, ok?

His is a lifestyle many fantasize about, but very few have the wherewithal, resourcefulness or guts to actually take the plunge. His website and blog are worth spending some time with if you’re looking for experience-tested ideas on how to sustain yourself on the road long-term.

Best of luck, Earl, and I hope you enjoy your stay in this little corner of the planet. It’s a pretty nice one, too.
