How we travelled

Modes of transportation:
  • Planes
  • Trains
  • Automobiles (taxis, private cars)
  • Subways
  • Monorails
  • Buses
  • Tuk Tuks
  • Motorbikes
  • Bicycles
  • Cyclos
  • Ferries
  • Longtail boats
  • Double-decker bus
  • Escalator (Hong Kong)
  • Trams
  • Van
  • Maglev
  • Elephant
  • Horse

What we skipped (due to lack of money usually):

  • Helicopters
  • Dune buggies
  • Submarines
  • Cable Cars


We built up pretty good carbon footprint from all of our travels that we'll be trying to offset as we rebuild our savings a bit. We flew over 36000 miles during the trip and drove (mostly in New Zealand) almost 3000 miles. I can't calculate our emissions from hotels, buses, trains, and other assorted transportation, but from everything I can include, we generated around 41,000 pounds of Carbon Dioxide during the trip.
