Ten countries in 25 days. That’s some feat. You could visit 10 countries in 25 years and that would be entirely reasonable.
I have snippets, though: shopping for Swiss Army Knives in Lauterbrunnen; walking the streets of Florence; helping to cook at the campsite in Amsterdam; and wearing a garbage bag as a poncho when it started raining at Oktoberfest. I still moved quickly, though: Vietnam in a fortnight, Cambodia in a week, India in three weeks, and almost all of East Africa in the space of three months. I travelled by train, bus and tuk-tuk – but I also travelled a lot by plane, flitting from country to country at 40,000 feet with the benefit of a round-the-world ticket.Then I was in my 30s, still with itchy feet.
I’m in my 40s now and the most memorable journeys of my recent past have all been rapid-fire. My partner, Jess, and I drove a ute around southern Africa for a month, through South Africa, Namibia and Botswana, never stopping for more than a few nights. We spent a week riding a scooter around the Mekong Delta in Vietnam, always on the road because the road was the adventure, the road was the goal.
