Assuming that I'm only allowed to travel only within the continents boundaries I'd like to live in Denver, Colorado. The reasons are that the people there are friendly, they're eco-friendly, crime is near minimum, and it is filled with nature. You're surrounded by nature, everywhere you look, every corner, behind every building there's a reminder of nature. Mountains fill the land, rivers passes through cities, forests surrounding every city. You're literally engulfed by mother nature herself. That's why I wanted to go visit Colorado.
2. How long will you be traveling?
I'd say that I plan to travel for a years time. Spending my time meeting new people, seeing new places, and living. I've done the research and saw that it would be an average of 1,823 miles for me to reach my destination. Using Google Maps, it would take 573 hours if I walked and 169 hours if I rode a bike. Guessing that I would half walk and half bike I would reach my destination in approximately 371 hours. Taking in hours needed for sleep, eat, self-time, enjoying surroundings, it would take about 2 months time for travel, by itself.

3. How do you plan to travel? Why are you choosing this mode of transportation?
I'd plan to travel by bike, and if i get too tired to petal I'll walk with my bike besides me. The bike is an ideal mode of transportation, since it would lift excessive amount of weight. I would not only carry necessary living equipment, I'll shorten time of travel and save money. Although at one point when biking seems to be too much, I'd plan to sell it save the money for when I want to bike again I'd simply go to a junk yard and buy another one, cheaper preferably.
4. What will you need for your trip? How are you going to provide food/traveling expenses while you're on the road?
For my trip I plan to take a pair of light weight set of clothes. My sketch pad, pencils, and a camera - are explained later- I'd take some good book to read when I needed a break from everything, where I'd drown myself in the lives of others. I also plan to take some money with me for my food. I'd buy cheap foods that are able to keep my stomach content. I would earn money buy running errands for people who'd want to help me. I'd plan to stop in a town long enough at a time to get a short job and earn as much money as I can before moving on. As for expenses I really wouldn't buy anything unnecessary since it would only lead towards dead weight. The only thing that I might buy while on the road would be even more books.
5. What do you plan to accomplish on this trip?
I plan to accomplish freedom, independence, confidence, and to live life to the fullest. To experience life's hardships and to gain patience. Although it sounds easy, and the phrase, 'better said than done,' does applies here, the main goal is to gain the courage to do things different. To be abnormal, stay from normality, live a bold life saying, 'that's right, I did that. I was stupid but I did it.' And finally I hope to accomplish trust, to follow my heart, and desires.

6. How will you record your experiences?
I will record my experiences by taking a sketch pad, art pencils, and color pencils. I'll draw what I see and who I meet. But just in case I'll also take a camera, one with a roll inside, that way it doesn't need recharging, and will always be convenient no matter what happens.
