Any chance we could see an almost-annual update to the map with all the suggestions made by readers… and my own suggestion: Christopher McCandless of Into the Wild?Either way, I love the idea and will definitely have to put a link up to this at soelswhere.com (awesome travel blog).

Cabeza DeVaca, Spaniard, the first explorer to reach the Northamerican Pacific coast from the Atlantic (Florida), and absolutely, Ibn Battuta, one of the greatest explorers of all ages. Also, don’t forget the Chinese attempt to cincunnavigate Africa as well as the Vikings trips to the coast of Northamerica.

It’s such a brilliant way to see the world and use as a starting point when planning a trip. Love the idea of walking in great explorers’ footsteps and get a history lesson in the process. I just wrote a blog post about it on my blog about slow travel called ’slowmoves’, check it out:http://slowmovesblog.blogspot.com/2009/04/great-historic-journeys-across-world.html

You must not have heard of Ibn Battuta? His journeys lasted for a period of nearly thirty years and covered almost the entirety of the known Islamic world and beyond, extending from North Africa, West Africa, Southern Europe and Eastern Europe in the West, to the Middle East, Indian subcontinent, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and China in the East, a distance readily surpassing that of his predecessors and his near-contemporary Marco Polo.
