Eventually after a lot of deliberation I decided on the second option. Back in the UK many friends were interested in the logistics and practicalities of a round the world trip. The answers to some of their questions would have been useful to me when I was planning this trip and could be useful to anyone considering a similar trip now. Working on the old adage a picture is worth a thousand dates of paul mccartney tour words here are six charts to summarise dates of paul mccartney tour my round the world trip. They show how long I travelled for, how far I travelled and and how many journeys using various modes of transport, how much I spent in each country, dates of paul mccartney tour how much the "big ticket" items were and the daily cost in each country excluding the big ticket items.
This is similar dates of paul mccartney tour to the first chart but shows the number of journeys made using each mode of transport. Before I started this trip the idea of two hours on a bus horrified me. These days 12, 16 or even 24 hours on a bus seem fine. Admittedly these are mostly dates of paul mccartney tour semi-cama A/C coaches rather than bone-jarring, overcrowded, 30-year old "local" buses stuffed with people, live chickens, bags of rice and goodness knows what else.
I travelled for 358 days on my round the world ticket. A bit of bad planning in Argentina meant I either dates of paul mccartney tour needed to do a visa run for a new 90-day dates of paul mccartney tour visa and only use six of them, or lose a few days off the end of my trip. Date changes on my ticket were free so I flew home a few days early. This chart shows how long I spent in each country in total (I visited dates of paul mccartney tour some more than once). The countries are listed alphabetically, not in the order I visited them.
This chart shows the total amount I spent in each country after leaving home. It does not include the money I spent before the trip started. Pre-trip dates of paul mccartney tour expenses included my OneWorld Explorer RTW ticket, backpacker insurance, vaccinations, visas, backpack and travel items. This chart includes the "big ticket" items; any single activity which cost over £300. If you're wondering why Australia cost so little it's because I did nothing there. I had to have an overnight stopover there to get from Shanghai to Queenstown. I thought I'd visit a tanguera friend in Melbourne so stopped for three nights in total. dates of paul mccartney tour I couldn't get hold of the tanguera and barely left the hostel for the entire time in Melbourne. My on-the-road expenses totalled £14,486. My pre-trip expenses totalled £4,906.
I counted any single activity costing over £300 as a "big-ticket" dates of paul mccartney tour item. I had planned for and made allowances for some (trekking in Nepal, Easter Island, Antarctic cruise or visit to Galapagos Islands) before starting dates of paul mccartney tour the trip. Others just cropped up as I was travelling.
If you're considering a Round the World trip, or backpacking in some of the countries I visited dates of paul mccartney tour you might appreciate a rough cost per day for planning purposes. This chart shows the average cost per day in each country excluding any big ticket items. It includes food, accommodation, in-country transport costs and miscellaneous expenses (eg: toiletries, clothes, camera repair and anything I forgot to categorise at the time of spending). It does NOT include any alcohol. In Nepal my accommodation was teahouses, in Southeast Asia it was mostly private dates of paul mccartney tour room with fan or A/C, elsewhere it was dorms. Food was mostly cheap, basic local fare (eg: streetmeat just about everywhere) but I did eat a lot of McNuggets in Buenos Aires. I made seven additional flights to my RTW ticket which are included dates of paul mccartney tour here. I expected to spend more in Argentina but I danced a lot less tango than I anticipated so saved some money there.
PS. Yes, I know the charts aren t rendering as circles. When/if I figure which bit of CSS is turning them into ovals I ll bludgeon it into submission dates of paul mccartney tour so my carefully constructed circles are once again circular.
