Summary of Webinar: Michael and I participated in a Webinar in late February to discuss all things long-term travel, the guide, and answered questions from future long-term travelers and current travelers alike. No topic was left untouched and this 60 minute discussion is hosted on his site for everyone who missed it to enjoy.
