Hmm, 5 eh? I'm not sure about 5 individual topics, because they all kind of blend together. But some basics would be: -What you learned/obtained from this experience/how it's changed you -What you hope others will reap from your trip -What surprised you/what was how you expected -What it meant to you to take such a trip -What you hope to accomplish now that it's done/what you hope it will inspire others to do I think that's only 4 dashes but basically just talk about what you feel is important; what aspects you think people should hear

Economy! Friendship! Hospitality! Gas prices! Get out and see your country cause Americans are over here dying for it.

Great question! 1. What (if anything) is similar among all of the people you met throughout your travel, and what that might mean about a "national character." 2. What is the hardest thing to let go of now that you have stopped traveling (the hospitality? the food? the car?). 3. If someone were to try to undertake a trip similar to this, what do you recommend they do/take/think? (Surely you have some things you would do differently; also, are there resources for the newbie traveler? How much money does one need?) 4. Be honest, what were the yucky(-est) and scary(-est) and sick(-est) moments. Everyone loves the funny/scary/sick stories! 5. What can we take away from your experience? Do you have any words of wisdom to share?
