my major project?

After discussing for my major project with Julio, i am thinking about recording sounds from every country i will cross by train during Easter.Since i have already booked to go to Paris, then train to Milan, then train to Bari, then Bari to Igoumenitsa by boat and finally to Thessaloniki by bus, why not exploring at the same time different sounds in every place i visit?Why not keeping a diary of such an experience?Even if i do not use the sounds for the major project, i can use them for any piece i want!
Moreover, while i was visiting the recommended sites by julio for acousmatic composition , i run into the website where R. Murray Schafer and his team created the “World soundscape project”.I will definitely investigate more on that project to get some ideas before i start my journey!!! I just hope my cheap digital recorder will do some good takes
