One of the most memorable days of our journey was spent at Batu Caves, rent a car under 25 a Hindu holy site near Kuala Lumpur. Quite by chance we happened on a family celebrating the holy rite of mundan , the once-in-a-lifetime experience when an infant has their head shaved. The family graciously allowed us to take part and videotape the event.
Food is always a popular topic for a travel story. It seems like the higher the calorie count, the higher the level of reader interest. Feast on these photos of decadent pastries in Paris. At least reading about them is fat-free, and might even burn up a few calories.

Larissa took cooking courses in 7 countries, one of her favorites was learning the secrets to making pasta from scratch in Italy. Now she has a backup plan in case this whole travel writing thing doesn t work out.
Travel is not all giggles and kicks. Our disappointing time on the polluted beaches of Bali showed how important it is to thoroughly research a destination before you go there, and to take some of what you read with a grain of salt. Bali is presented as a tropical paradise. Our experience there was somewhat different.
Wow, sounds like you had an amazing 2012, very inspirational. Congratulations on having the courage to sell everything so you could go off and experience all of those things. Good luck with the book this year!
Great overview of a year in travel, I especially like the vintage rent a car under 25 cars and the Parisian pastries, yum! For us it will be off to Eastern Europe in the spring, rent a car under 25 hoping to hit Ukraine, Poland, Czech Rep. and possibly Hungary if time and budget permit but of course it s all subject to change at this point!
