The Travel Itch

I’ve been stateside since late November. I’ve traveled a bit within the USA since I got home (NYC, Vegas, Southern California), but I’ve got an itch for another trip somewhere abroad. Working is fun, but an international vacation is needed and in the works. Anyone have any thoughts on the best places to visit in the Caribbean? I’m thinking about Saint Thomas, but would love your thoughts on the best islands down there.

Favorite Backpacking Gear?

Before every single on of my backpacking trips, I’ve gone and visited REI here in Seattle for a few new pieces of travel gear. 6 years after my first trip, here are my all time favorite pieces of travel gear:

  1. Amazon Kindle – I purchased my Kindle prior to departing for Europe last spring following the advice of Andrew Mattie (the other co-founder of Oh Hey World). Best purchase ever. 100 times better than carrying heavy books around and trying to find quality English books abroad.
  2. My REI backpack – I used my sister’s backpack for my first few trips abroad, but happy to now have a backpack to call my own.
  3. Macbook Air – What an AWESOME laptop for traveling. Small, lightweight, and a Mac. What more could you ask for?
  4. Polartec tshirts – especially in hot and humid climates (like Ghana), these are a must.
  5. Keens – where would I be without my keens? No clue. Best shoes I’ve ever owned, hands-down.

What are your favorite pieces of backpacking gear?

The DriftingDuo – Help them Win the 2011 STA World Traveler Internship!

I met Brad and Chelsea, the Drifting Duo, in Greece last spring (wow, I can’t believe it’s been that long already)! And they are both awesome awesome people. The kind of people you can’t help but love. The kind of people you know you’ll still be friends with years and years from now. The kind of people who you can travel anywhere, anytime and not get upset with. You know. THOSE type of people.

They’ve been traveling for 11 months already — but aren’t ready to give it up (not by a long shot)!! And to continue their adventure, they have entered the 2011 STA World Traveler Internship competition. Here is their applicant page with a 3 minute video. I just went though and watched a few videos of the other applicants, and I think Brad and Chelsea’s video blows them all away by a mile.

Please help them out by watching their video, becoming a fan, and leaving a comment!! I’m confident they are deserving of the honor. And their video rocks. Seriously. Go fan them. NOW.
