Travel Tips: Before You Go, Preparation & Paperwork
The end of the my town
Whether it's a meteor strike, Noah style flood or Buffyesque Hellmouth opening up under your town, where you live is going to be destroyed in three months and you really need to leave by then. So concentrate your mind and don't buy those new shoes, they won't be practical in the rainforest, and cut down on the vodka - it'll taste better in Vladivostok. All the money saved now can be spent on the road avoiding the imaginary fate that will put an end to your home.
