Thanks for this post tho tony, the idea of taking a month out to experience some place new might not sound revolutional but really does challenge a lot of ideas out there!

Would you rather go backpacking while you're young and full of energy, sleeping in cheap hostels, couchsurfing, meeting locals and trying to find ways of making your money last to keep you abroad for as long as possible. Or would you rather go on an organised tour staying at 4/5* hotels when you're retired and being told what to see and do?
