In Noms thread where she talks about cheap travel, it got me thinking
of the cheap travel I have done.
Hitchiking across the US and Canada back in the late 70s, fun then but
would not do it today
Hitchiking in Mexico in the mid-80s, fine then but not today.
Hitching around Venezuela in mid 90s. still probably feasible and
cheap.
Hitching around Belize and Guatemala in mid 90s, still OK.
Ya gotta camp to make it cheap and that means a tarp, hammock and
skeeter net. *In the tropics, use the skeeter net or you'll regret it.
In the USA, National Forest Campgrounds are great and cheap or you can
just camp in the woods.
Travel in the USA, believe it or not, it is probably cheaper to rent a
car for a month to drive across the country than to use your own car.
