I like this post!
Stat suggestions:
-miles hiked
-Wines tasted
– beers tasted
– cost/day/person not including airfare/excursions
I’ve noticed a lot of travel blogs include this and it would be helpful for folks perhaps considering a similar trip. I just checked out an Argentina backpacking guide that said $30/day is possible with hostel lodging.
Great suggestions! We could only do things that we could remember or had unwittingly counted in some way. Maybe now we’ve thought of this kind of post we can keep track of a few more things – like miles hiked!
