[Corroncho]

I like to travel in blocks structured around friends/family/tax trips back to the USA, typically doing a Sept-Feb stint in the States to watch some football and file two years worth of taxes before fucking off again for 18 months or so. A lot of the 'where-and-how long' depends on the country's tourist visa policy. Colombia is an easy six-month block. Thailand and the Schengen area are both pretty simple for three months. Vietnam and Cambodia are good for anything up to a year. I've been doing it long enough that by now I almost have a travel body clock; after six months anywhere I am chomping at the bit to take off for somewhere new.
