The mp3 player thing is probably better for my viewing only - the faces aren't really clear, and they act mostly as a trigger for those memories. If you mean trying to figure out what to do with the photos you take, I've learned most backpackers burn CD's at internet cafe's these days. If you make 2 copies, you can mail one home, and keep one just in case it doesn't arrive. I'm planning to take 2 memory cards, totaling 4 gigs of space, which should be plenty. I was thinking that I could take any opportunities with couchsurfers who have broadband internet to upload photos to Flickr. I sprung for the $25 Pro, unlimited storage, account. :smile: Good point about taking some prints for the random person you might meet on a train or something.

One is to replace my mp3 player that died a slow death last year. I might take a few prints just in case I wanted to share my life back home but didn't want to reveal I had an expensive gadget with me.

Trying to figure out what do with all the photos is a huge concern for me….
