I don’t do multiple long ones in a year for example oct 14 33 nights Dec 14 7 nights Dec 15 7 nights Feb 16 5 nights Oct 17 2 nights Dec 17 7 nights Dec 18 8 nights Dec 19 8 night Jan 20 11 nights Apr 20 3 nights Dec 20 6 nights (I think) Feb 21 33 nights. Plus a couple of land trips 7-10 nights each. so as you can see about 6 years between the two long ones.

But I have to tell you that I laughed when I realized that those double digits were years and not days of the month. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we love our home, friends, family, activities and so on. We have three intl. trips between now and next Sept. and I can't imagine doing any more. We'll also have land trips probably here in the West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I won't be selling up to travel full time, but with travel times to get to anywhere apart from Oceania, we are looking at 15- 25 hours flying time, it makes sense to spend more like 4-6 weeks rather than just two weeks. If you do that a few times each year along with some travel back in Australia for a week here or a weekend there, it is easy to be spending around 12 weeks of each year travelling. Still leaves 40 weeks at home itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
