Everyone has different reasons for starting such an adventure but I tend to think that "hoping for a change" might be the worst.
Don't get me wrong, I respect this idea, I just feel the starting asumption may lead you somewhere you did not expect at first.
You might not like what you find during your adventure, you might not like what you discover of yourself, you might lie to yourself, incounciously trying to convince yourself that you're on the right path.
Trying to stay really objective towards oneself during such a trip is quite a challenge by itself, a very interesting one.
I feel that hiking / biking for the sake of it, for the beauty of the world, of its people, for the physical performance is a much more truthful experience than any other self-conviction goal.
In the end, what counts stays in you, in your eyes, in your heart and muscles. And that's not the kind of things you can sum up by a video, a blog or any slideshow back home.
That said, I wish sincerely that you find yourself!
