where is he going?
Departing June 17th for the shortest frequent flier ticket I could find to Bilbao (~24 hrs)
Embarking June 24th from Azkoitia, Spain in a newly purchased used car
Associates/Fellow Drivers: Thomas Chris Kelly, James Kelly (brothers)
1. The Drive: Driving through Switzerland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Hungary, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Mongolia
Arriving Ulan Bataar ~6 weeks later.
Blue means driving
2. CHINA: Next step is a train ride down to Beijing - a day or two of OLYMPICS! Also an opportunity to stock up on some clean shirts - other shirts = most likely perma-stained
Dotted = flight to Chengdu. Blue was going to be a motorcycle drive through Tibet to the capital but that is looking less likely due to politics.
3. Volunteer in India: Flight or train to Uttarakhand, India where I will volunteer with Avani-KUMAON to develop water sanitation and alternative energy programs in the rural areas at the feet of the Himalayan mountains.
4. Southern India: the green is around a thousand mile bike ride down to the southern coast of India in April and May
Returning with stories and maybe a new haircut: ~May 29th (longest I can hold off on getting my return ticket with frequent flier miles)
*more poor attempts at photoshopped maps to come until access to program is discontinued

hey little boy, why do you have different colors on your route??
I think the prettiest thing on your route is the B :-) Since it is in Switzerland
Fabster :-) see you soon
I think you are too cool to be friends with me quite possibly. Let's keep in touch and maybe we can touch base if I make it to India-- it seems as if I may be in Thailand and Cambodia sometime in the near future...
