I went to school in Northern Wisconsin and drove there and back from Long Island. My
brother went to school in Denver & drove non-stop a few times ( in his VW bus ).

People may not recall what you said to them, but they will always remember how you made them feel .
Alone: Seattle, WA <--> Irvine, CA (2350 mi). Road-tripped to LA when I was between jobs, had always wanted to check it out and never gotten an opportunity.
With friends: Oxford, OH <--> Roswell, NM (3549 mi). Long road trip to NM with a couple college friends. Took a southerly route there through New Orleans and Houston, then hit up Albuquerque and Santa Fe before heading back east.
Forgot about ships. I made several trips with cargo ships. Some from Baltic Sea to Sochi and Batumi. To Casablanca, Safi (Morocco), to Las Palmas...
Not sure about the nautical miles.
What is the furthest you have traveled without using a plane on any part of the journey?
About 9,000 miles.
I took a small US Navy wooden minesweeper from Long Beach, CA to the Mekong Delta in 1967. It took 45 days.
Then, when I got to Vietnam they tried to kill me.
But driving?.... Yeah. I was a trucker. Over 750,000 miles all over the 48.
Retired now.
Cincinnati to the west coast by car via Rt 66 picked up in StL and return via Northern rt by car with mant sidetrips to various NPs and points of interest
Eastern Washington to Fairbanks, Alaska and back. I believe the entire trip was about 6800 miles towing a RV.
In Europe, from London to Moscow, about 2000 miles on a bicycle and then by train from Holland to Moscow.
Every winter, from eastern Washington to south-east Arizona and back about 3,400 plus miles driving.
It is almost the same distance from London to Moscow as eastern Washington to Arizona. Europe is so small!!!
wow!
How do you get so much time?
