Travelshoebum : The Bum Who Travels
My story of traveling through the world
Travelshoebum – this blog is where I share tales from my random travel explorations; these are journeys that I have undertaken over the years. An outstretched thumb asking for a ride is the setting for some of these sojourns and kindness from absolute strangers is a prominent theme in my travels. The journeys and stories on this blog range from travel guides for various regions in high altitude Himalaya to the wild lands of the Northeast and anecdotes of international travel experiences.
