I suspect that it will be a accomplished a bit at a time! Thanks for encouraging us in the right direction.

So take the devil out of the equation and forget about the details. My wife and I were traveling for a year across South America and did some planning when the lack thereof would have meant being stranded in an Island in Bolivia for one extra week. That's what planning is for in long term travel. But again --- you have to be flexible. Flexibility is one thing you now have. Sometimes though spontaneity can land you in a bitter sweet situation. Like when we found this beautiful camp site (quite and clean) near Macchu Picchu to then in the morning being awaken by a guard telling that that we had just slept on top of Pacha Mama (mother earth).

As I understand it, they key to long term travel is to figure out how to plan for the essentials while allowing the journey to take care of itself. I hope that the longer Natalie and I travel the more we will come to understand about this concept. Weston,

Some places you will want to stay for days and others for just hours. Make the best of your travels and enjoy it. The backpacking lifestyle is about being free leaving timelines and concerns behind.
