You can do it to...and it's cheaper than you might think go to airtreks.com

I did market research on people who take trips like this. It usually not really about money it's about a lack of fear. It doesn't cost that much to back pack it around the world.

There's a company in the USA that specializes in the particular type of airfare needed for trips like this. Check it out at www.airtreks.com

Nausea

It appears I'm the only one for whom this was induced. Maybe it was the one-size-fits-all "global music", or the sloppy whiteboy flopping (or both), but I feel like I just got out of Disneyland's Small World ride. Remind me why this bland kid should be my "ambassador to the world"?

Sweetness, personified

If Keith Haring's radiant baby grew up and danced out into the world, he would be this guy. Delighted, and delightful, and totally un-self-conscious. Lovely.

Remind me why this bland kid should be my "ambassador to the world"?

Oh, he definitely shouldn't be your ambassador to the world, as an ambassador should accurately represent the people whose emissary he is. For you, I suggest Nathan Thurm.
