To Canada (3 months) and Japan (10 months)
I hitchhiked across Canada from Halifax to Vancouver (via Alaska) for three months in 2001, and followed it by going out to Japan for ten months - just taking photos. I had a Canon Powershot Pro90IS point-and-shoot and took about 40,000 photos. In Japan, I sold a CD of my photos to people I met as a way of funding my travels.
I also (mostly) hitched back from Japan to England in 1999 with a Pro70 camera and an IBM Thinkpad - nine months travel and 7,000 photos.
Now I take photos mostly in Cambridge, but recently travelled to Blackpool (about 200 miles) to take 4300 photos in 13 hours of ballroom dancing (one every 11.4 seconds on average) on an EOS 40D.
