A3: Sharing a photo of the road out, from our accommodations
which felt like a long journey in time, but was actually a short journey in distance, just 2 km. South of Tamarindo, the small beachside community of Playa Langosta greeted us like a beautiful oasis.

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @TheTravelCamel Haha, I was about to say at least it rained when you were under cover. I’d love to go back and do Kinlochleven to Fort William because it was miserable the first time. #TRLT

A4 Albania's roads in 2003 were. a challenge. We had a guide and driver with a sturdy car; just as well. They asked if we were expecting roads as bad as this. @HMatthews' reply (full Lady Bracknell mode): "I was expecting. a road." @travelatwill #TRLT

replying to @loyaltytravels @loyaltytravels @CaitlinKellyNYC It had two long (8+ hour) airport layovers - in Dubai (where I had access to the business class lounge - that was good) and New York (where I had access to the seating area - that was not good). #TRLT

Wow, almost 2 days in transit--and not even an around-the-world route! My Oman-Dubai-Rio-Buenos Aires flight years ago wasn't even that long. #TRLT https://t.co/5c8f3MtH4s

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @TravelAtWill A4. I had lactose intolerance as a kid but bloody loved milk. Lots of toilet stops is what I’m saying. And one infamous coach trip that my family will never let me forget. #TRLT

A4: some unique challenges that we've had on long journeys?
Flight cancellations or delays, and lost luggage, which have resulted in rearranging our travel plans.
Vehicle issues, like blowing a tire on our motorcycle, and requiring time for repairs.

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @TravelAtWill #TRLT a4. Fortunately I've had pretty good luck. On a trip back from Mexico this spring there were numerous flight delays and I ended up sleeping in the LA airport. Got in at 10pm, next flight was 9am. Only few hotels avail and uber line was over an hour long. Hotel pricing was $

#trlt A3: I'm going to be imminently doing a blog post which references this (based on a recent podcast/Twitter Spaces I did about my Hike Across Great Britain), but I'd say: mental health. Keeping upbeat. Keeping yourself, well, sane & not getting angsty about little things.

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @CaitlinKellyNYC The Lounges are a great respite and a shower or two along the way depending on how long is the trip. #TRLT. I have Lounge access when my cabin does not give it to me. But in some airports there just is no access

replying to @RTWBarefoot #trlt or, you, know, A4 even. :D

Weather, that was my main irk on that hike. It rains in the UK, even in the middle of summer. And those trails go through some very bleak and empty landscapes.
