Well, I never went around the world, but touring for six months in Europe was a heck of a lot easier than coming into an office and going to work every day. When you sleep in a tent or hostel (or as the guest of a gracious host met along the way), when you cook your own grub, it can be amazingly inexpensive. I wonder how many people have done a world tour.
