1. Mike will travel with me. Freddy will not.
2. Except for major transport legs, we will spend most of the trip non-motorized- likely hiking and walking, perhaps canoeing or biking, depending on destination.
3. We would like to visit people you know, if you know people where we go.
4. The time of year and length of trip will depend on where we go.
5. We don't plan to tackle the entire scope of each choice- just quality time in a few spots within the selected region.
Send ideas, let me know if you have connections, help persuade me further. It will be hard to narrow to a finalist, so I will need your help!

your friends are just not the bloggy type, I guess! So I'll jump in and try to spark some conversation. I voted for the Western European Alps simply because I think you're going to gravitate more naturally toward Peru et al.
Given your SPASTIC nature and inability to shut down, the romance, ambiance and WINES of Europe should help anesthasize your work ethic...the culture of Europe may help you slow down and saunter, not giddy up and run hard.
I see you being much more comfortable in Peru - no shower, no hair product, no wine opener. not to be crass, but a train pass, and an awsome bed and breakfast with starched sheets is what you need!
Like in Eat, Pray, Love (you should read it) you'll discover something new about yourself if you indulge in a different way.
Cheers!
Hey ! Where did Sri Lanka go? Beautiful place, excitement at the possibility of being blown up by the Tamil Tigers, plus paying homage to Arthur C. Clarke (may he rest in peace). Plus, one of my best friends is Sri Lankan and I can hook you up!
On the other hand, I think New Zealand is a slam dunk.
