Becoming a travel agent...

...I wish.

meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee:

Checked money ...kinda.
Checked travel costs ...kinda.

Just waiting for a green light from the doc ...kinda.

I visit the doc tomorrow and am willing to negotiate. Traveling is important for my well-being. Blood clots could kill me or worse disable me. So... medications and alternatives. I'm willing to negotiate on going from meds to treating with diet. The problem with coumadin is that it needs to be monitored and traveling might create a problem. I'm willing to put taking garlic and aspirin on the tablet as a negotiating point.

One month trips including air fare:

$1550 Costa Rica (700+850)
$1550 Colombia (800+750)
$2400 Sénégal (1200+1200)
$2800 Portugal (1000+1800)
$3500 Fji (1500+2000)

These five one month trips would equal $11,800 ...ouch. Since I wouldn't be spending any money back home... (except for rent) that's $5,000 for 5 months. Final debit? $6,800. I would need that much and a couple thousand spare bucks for emergencies.

That's traveling bargain basement economy style. It's actually cheaper per month to spend two months in most places (Colombia becomes $2300 for 2 months) or combine airfares (visit Potugal, Spain, Morocco, Mauritania, Sénégal in one trip), (Costa Rica and Colombia maybe Panamá) (Fiji and... flights are from LAX but there is a flight to Honolulu! And cost would be similar... Hawai'i and Fiji? Why not.). Ah, but traveling for two months is difficult for the body, especial considering meds.

Do they have garlic in Fiji?

Accommodation costs could be lowered by more research into hostels in Portugal and Fiji or campements villageois in Sénégal. Flight costs? How about a freighter? I don't know how to get flight costs down.
