There has been a lot of fun stuff going on over at BootsnAll in the past few months, much of it revolving around RTW travel. The RTW Wednesday column that started back in April was the beginning, and since then we have been working hard to revamp, update, and add new content to the RTW section of our site. The result has been a top-notch resource that will guide all wanna-be RTW travelers through the entire process of planning a RTW trip.
If you’re in the dreaming stages, far from actually committing to a trip like this, we have plenty for you. If you’re in this stage, you are probably wondering if a trip like this is even possible for someone like you. You need motivation. You need to hear other’s stories. Luckily we have plenty of resources for you. You may want to start by dispelling the myths of RTW travel, or you can look at what type of people go on RTW trips.
If you’ve already made the decision to go, then planning is on the forefront of your mind. There is so much to think about when planning a trip like this that it makes it difficult to know where to even begin. Planning is what we do best, and we’ve thought about all the things first-time RTW travelers need to know when planning a trip of this magnitude. If short answers to your questions is what you like, then check out the Planning FAQ’s. If you have some time on your hands, then grab a beer, cup of coffee, or drink of your choice, sit down, relax, and go through our epic planning guide. From costs of RTW travel to accommodations to what type of clothes to pack, we have you covered.
We haven’t forgotten about those of you who are actually on the road right now. Unfortunately there are things you simply can’t plan for when getting ready for a trip like this. But we’re here to hook you up with all types of tips and guides to make your trip as great as it can be. Staying healthy while you’re on the road is important, so be sure to read the tips we have for remaining in tip top shape. Some RTW travelers need to work while on the road to supplement their income. If you are one of these people, then read our guide to working on your RTW trip.
We also know that the trip doesn’t end when you come home. If you just returned from a RTW trip, you’re probably suffering from a bit of reverse culture shock. Find out how to cope and how to deal with your wanderlust now that you’re home.
If you going on a RTW trip or planning one now, then I would love to talk to you and get your opinion on the RTW planning process and our RTW Travel Guide. If that describes you, contact the RTW Wednesday column writer, Adam Seper, at adam@bootsnall.com.
