Early Travels
Beginning December 2002, Omar embarked on a 370-day journey across the continents of Asia and Latin America covering 14 countries. The objective of the trip was not to go to as many countries as possible but to truly dig below the surface of every country visited. The trip was completed on a $20/day budget. In many ways this trip became the inspiration for Omar's later career change and the founding of Adventure Travel company Wild Guanabana.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or travels:
“Franklin said once in one of his inspired flights of malignity—
Early to bed and early to rise
Make a man healthy and wealth and wise.
As if it were any object to a boy to be healthy and wealthy and wise on such terms.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Imagination places the future world for us either above or below or in reincarnation. We dream of travels throughout the universe: is not the universe within us? We do not know the depths of our spirit. M The mysterious path leads within. In us, or nowhere, lies eternity with its worlds, the past and the future.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
