    They have internet there.

    Hopefully within the next 5 years, maybe within the next 9 though.

    Are you going there with an aching in your heart?

    I'm just gonna go by land most of the way, then by boat on the part where you simply have to.

    i doubt he'll bring sardines

    he seems like more of a leecher ..will probably show up with nothing but squawks.

    BTW,
    While I am traveling, I will be making videos to be posted on YouTube.

    And I won't just be visiting these places, I will be eating there food as well. And even just in Mexico they eat crazy stuff. People fish a lot, so lots of different home made Mexican fish dishes (last time I was there I ate a fish with teeth) and if you get a "Street Taco" in Mexcio, the stall will say "Taco De Cabeza" which means "Head Tacos" which means it's made out of tongue, cheek and brain meat.

    And that's only the first country after America.

    No, you can eat there and shit.

    But I plan on going for research purposes, not just as a visitor.

    I can do that here. So you want to see what there is to see. Don't get me wrong, my thoughts for you are bon voyage. The most informative thing about travel though is being introduced to different perspectives or ways of living, these are our abstract considerations. Physical processes are the same everywhere.

    Penguins aren't everywhere. Whales aren't everywhere. Not everywhere has ice that hasn't been tampered with for thousands if not millions of years.

    If I can't afford Antarctica, I'll be heading to South Africa. Then from South Africa, the rest of Africa (I want to see some ruins, especially Carthage and Egypt)

    Then from there the middle East for some Poppy and Marijuana videos.

    Then from there to India, then I'll try to get to Antarctica again from India.

    Diving waterfowl are everywhere there is a living economy in water. Whales are found in all the worlds oceans. I get fresh glittering ice every winter. Traveling is fun but the grass is not greener over there. Don't even think there is much grass over there. Be sure and bring some.

    1. I have video of "Diving water fowl", I want to see a penguin.

    2. Where exactly do I find the whales in Colorado?

    3. I would definitely bring marijuana seeds, and growing plants would probably be part of my research. And if America wouldn't accept the project, I would ask another country that has claim to some land down there.

    If you can't afford a tourist cruise to Antarctica you can always try hitching a ride on a ship bound for there. People did that before and it costs you way less. So 'not being able to afford' can not be your excuse anymore.
