    He's 123? That's a bit old alright.

    I'd say 20 is the average age. It'd usually range from 18 - 22, but I know a guy who did one last year when he was 28 (mature student, obviously). He didn't like it that much though. He did it on his own and I think he found it quite lonely. However, loads of people do it alone every year, and they make plenty of friends. Just don't go somewhere like San Diego.

    I did it on my own last year I made a load of American friends. Never met 1 Irish person while I was there :D I was 21 and I'm going again this year (final year student).

    Hi man! You'd recommend going alone then so... Where did you go?

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.
