No argument on the car, it offers almost unrivaled freedom. Unfortunately, the reality of this is that you don't have that luxury. Instead of bitching and moaning about how stressful planning things is, why not try just going for it and seeing what happens? No matter how you look at it, you'll see and experience more from a train or bus than you will from sitting at your hostel complaining.
As you can see from my previous posts, I *do* know how to get around. Doesn't mean that I have to like it. It's just a lot more work. Basically I'm just going to have to bulldoze headfirst through this planning and scheduling every day and every time I hit a bus station or hostel.
The bicycle option might work. That's a lot of riding with all my gear and riding up in national park terrain with my camera gear and it eliminates the possibility of me ever taking a taxi should I really want to just simplify things. Still better than a tour bus though.
