    Michael, I was directed to your blog from your posts concerning travel by freighter. It looks like you circumnavigated the globe in 2008 without getting on an airplane. I am similarly interested in this kind of travel, and wonder if you can direct me to any current information/blogs on this topic, as I would like to do similar travel with my 9-year old son, but not completely sure where yet. Thank you!

    Great suggestion Michael,

    Here I would like to add India as one of the best destination one should consider to explore in 2018. The reason is obvious, I recently came back from India after my Christmas holidays and trust me, it is amazing.
