Preparing a detailed route gets your mind wrapped around the journey and the excitement level rises. You have to dive into internet blogs, travel books and dig all kind of information to get the route sorted out initially. It turned out that after years of traveling (together Marcell and I have been to 50 countries), planning our route on that scale was a bit more complex and challenging than usual. Besides the longer travel period of 3 months (the longest travel so far was a trip for 2 months Marcell did in South America), now we were 5 people having an opinion and agony of choice started to play tricks.
