Sounds like you have a plan allready. Don't get drawn into the trap of buying lots of kit. One of the problems with a long preparation time is you start to plan for every eventuality, boxes of spares, tons of kit then the vehicle becomes precious and as such a liability. Deciding which vehicle, what kit etc is part of the journey and to be savoured along the way but it is a means to an end, or rather a begining.
If I were to go for 5 months then i'd go round the mediteranian, through Saudi, accross to Ethiopia, then see where I fancied from there knowing that 3 weeeks would get me back up through Mali, RIM and Morocco
Well you did ask - i'm off to swallow a little of my own medicine.
