This book provides thought-provoking insights and practical information for planning a long-term trip. Various options for organizing a break are explored, and insurance-related aspects are explained. Whether you are flying to Australia for just three months, planning to travel the world for three years, or anything in between, the considerations and preparations are essentially the same. During her extensive research for her own long-term journey, the author often wished there was a book that contained everything she needed to know. Eventually, she became an expert on long-term travel and decided to write the book herself. The advantage for the reader is that not only is their own planning addressed, but all possible options are presented, along with personal (and quite subjective) experiences.
