I'm about 2 months away from departure. Here is my blog if anyone is interested:

I have 4 main adventures on this trip that I have come up with so far. If anyone has any other suggestions, please post them.
1) Hike to Everest Base Camp
2) Travel the Silk Road from Xi'an to Kashgar and then cross the border into Kyrgyzstan
3) Buy a bike in Hanoi and ride it 2000km to Ho Chi Minh City
4) Cross an ocean on a Cargo Ship, possibly from India to Africa
