We're Outta Here! How to Plan and Take the Trip of Your Dreams

Summary: extremely motivating!
Review: I found David's book to be entertaining, full of useful information and extremely motivating. Most of us harbor a dream that we push deep inside because "it's just not practical" or we have no real plan to make it a reality. This book offered me hope for those dreams. It was inspiring to follow two ordinary middle class people pursue a vision and intimately share their experience. Following their journey was exciting and offered practical advise. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking practical tips on making your dream a reality!

Summary: Really just another travelogue...
Review: I was kind of disappointed in this book -- based on its title, I really thought it would be more helpful in the planning process of a major trip. However, as it turns out, the authors were fairly well-off, which is essentially what allowed them to do their round-the-world trip. (They lived on the cheap while abroad, but had a huge chunk of change to come home to.) While I don't hold their wealth against them, it certainly doesn't help shoestring-budget me -- basically, their "advice" came down to, "First, save up $125,000..." :) There are some useful charts in the back, & lists of travel and packing advice -- however, a good 95% of the book is the story of their actual trip. Also, as would be expected, the financial details are about 10 years old, so of little use now. In summary -- it's fun to read about the trip, but it doesn't really give the kind of advice that the title would lead you to expect.

Summary: A nice book, but holds little advice
Review: This book is nice and interesting, it really can give you inspiration and in me it has awoken an old dream, to travel around the globe. BUT, this book is'n a guid-book and it doesn't give you a lot advice. It's more of a journal, in which the authour tells us about his adventures during a bike trip across the US. What I liked about this book is that the authour, D. Wooten, isn't an athlet and not an experienced bike rider, and it's nice to resd about the challenges and the triumphs of the "real people".
