A Road Trip was held and was a great success; see PlanN

Plan N+1

Japan?
- It is probable that I (Smith) can provide a bilingual guide and possibly limited accomodation in Osaka
  - I would furthermore suggest that we do perhaps two major places (say Osaka and Tokyo) with a simple and painless transition between them
    - Not necessarily convinced - I rather liked the flying visit approach of the previous trip - but in practice I guess there're not so many places in Japan. I would want to see Kyoto at least, but that's a perfectly reasonable excursion from Osaka. --Lmm
The Trans-Siberian Railway has been proposed with varying levels of seriousness
- I meant it entirely seriously, but thought it would be best combined with the above (especially since I expect few people other than me to be interested) --Lmm
  - Apparently it is not as time-consuming as I (Smith) thought
Soviet Central Asia, China and Mongolia are also interesting places if we wish to go somewhere exotic
Could do a road trip 2.0 to Istanbul now that we know about Kompas car rental; a Croatia/Serbia/Romania/Bulgaria/Turkey/Greece/Macedona/Albania/Kosovo/Bosnia route would actually have very little overlap with the previous effort
Israel, Palestine and perhaps some neighbouring countries would be interesting, but I (Smith - who else, ololol) expect the Kosovo Passport Issue returns with a vengeance if we do this
