How Much Money Do I Need For Thailand? - Travel Happy. How to Lie, Cheat, and Steal Your Way to a Perfect Flight. Everyone bitching about the lack of legroom due to their height seems to think that makes it ok. "Oh, I'm not fat, just tall! I have no control over it!

And while I thoroughly enjoy communicating with readers (I’m being completely serious and encourage you all to continue sending your emails to me as often as you wish), the fact that these very questions are on the minds of so many of you out there has led me to believe that I need to do a better job at providing the answers. While it’s true that I’ve already written plenty of posts on the matter, clearly all of these posts, even as one collective entity, still fall well short of proving that a life of travel is not some crazy fantasy but a perfectly reasonable and easily attainable lifestyle option instead.
