Everything you need to know about how to travel can be found in Kansas. For outsiders, the Sunflower State is an oversight, a fly-over state, a handy stand-in for any bumpkin point you may want to make. Going to Kansas, and seeing for yourself, rather than repeating the same is where travel begins. It's not always where you go -- and the Yucatan beaches are sounding pretty good at the moment -- but how you go too.
That photo in the banner? That's climbing a Mars-like volcano near Mt Tobalchik, in Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula. We got to the base in an ex-USSR army 6WD, driving atop hardened lava passing blacked tops of dead trees.

Fortunately walruses don't eat us.
That's the best use of graph paper I've seen in a long time, and a lovely drawing of your mustaschioed animal friend.
