Travel

Thinking about taking a trip this May. Wanting to go to either Europe or South America. Leaning towards Brasil but will need to see. Using kayak.com explore to pick out my flights. I have a small story, when I flew to New Orleans from upper michigan this December I offered up my seat on a booked flight for a little over $1,500.

I went solo in a Jeep Wrangler so gas expense was high but lodging was free and shopping at Publix grocery store made meals a ordinary expense. So, at the end of the day I spent money on gas to see some friends. Pictures to follow. Comments and feedback are appreciated.
