Dear Brent,
Welcome to the group and nice to meet you. I am sending a link to the latest newsletter from the KI of Europe. This isssue is dedicated to Macrobtiocs and traveling, and maybe you can find some inspiration for keeping your diet while travling:

I have done it myself while I was traveling n India for 7 month and keeping my diet, and also when I went camping in the US, and I have to say that it is more than possible, and only adds to the travel experience. All it requires is some planning in advance and motivation =)
Wishing you all the best with your studies and your career,
Karny
