close. i was in cuenca, ecuador and the airline cancelled my flight to the Galapagos islands the day before. had to go to the airline's office which, thank god, was in town and basically force them to uncancel it. they never told us what it was cancelled for. #TRLT https://t.co/5uyISbY2x5

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @postcardsplaces A3 Fighting off cockroaches all night in the Cultural Centre in Mao, Chad. A sea of them escaped from the long drop toilet, covered the floor and spent all night trying to get into my bed. I kept the oil lamp on all night and listened to my wind up radio until sunrise...#TRLT

A4: Running towards the end of 3 weeks in Alaska and a major planned excursion, our flight was cancelled at the last minute with no time for rescheduling. Fortunately had a list of other small flight operators, so drove from one to the other until we got lucky.

@StuartMHurlbut @postcardsplaces Ugh! Sleepless nights due to insect infestation are definitely not the travel memories you want to bring home, Stuart.

A4: Leaving Albania was tricky. The airport authorities couldn't find the entry stamp in my passport. So they didn't understand how I'd got in. Cue a (fairly relaxed) interview with 3 police officers in a back room. @afewmilesmore #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @postcardsplaces A3) About 20 years ago a friend & I were hiking at Point Reyes National Seashore when my friend decided to take a shortcut across the estuary where I ended up stuck in the mud & muck up to my thighs. It must have taken about 30 minutes for me to get out. 😠#TRLT

replying to @BradtGuides
@BradtGuides Now, this I'd call a true-life adventure, for a traveler. However, I know that these natural disasters are horrible for people who live there, but it's no one's fault, just life, these things happen.
I can only imagine me & 25 kg suitcase trying to get into the canoe.

A2 We rode the bus MN→Iowa in order to get to the Amtrak station. The bus was running late but we still had time. Then at the bus stop (gas station) we asked for a cab to Amtrak. "It'll be like $10 Are you sure? Yes, please, we need to get there!" Didn't miss it but close #TRLT

A4 I'm not a fan of heights, but I had to do it in #NewZealand. I've also done skydiving twice. You just have to talk yourself through it, breathe, and take the leap. @afewmilesmore #TRLT #adventure
