Where would you go?

minidazzler

OK, since this is of real interest to me right now I said I would ask here. For both suggestions and experience, or just to let you day dream.

Where would you move to in the world for a year or more on your own if you had No responsibilities, Your youth (21), No direction in life.

You have €6000 to pay for flights and such and to get yourself set up.

So, where would you go?

This is actually something I want to do soon, and it seems I may be coming into the means to do so.

Stephentlig

Jerusalem for me.

Without Doubt Canada, you cant beat it.

donfers

south east asia or south america, you can live like a king for tuppence in both, great friendly people too and unlike australia/canada/usa etc, a completely different culture, a genuine travelling experience, not for wimps, cowards or bores....for smug pretentious types who like an adventure and don't mind roughing it 6,000 will get you a long way (maybe up to 6 months)

Ah good ol' Without Doubt, Canada.

It's about 100 miles outside Toronto isn't it? Lovely little town.

L.Jenkins

Australia. Or back to the little old town of Boulder Creek, Northern California. Full of redneck hicks but funny as fúck!

liah

Somewhere in Scandinavia I think.

Or Canada again, far west or far east coast though, British Columbia or either P.E.I./Newfoundland/Nova Scotia (I'm from Ontario). They're stunning and it really is a lovely country.

GirlOfGlass

Australia. Definitely.

phasers

I'd go to London

Gillington

South east Asia for me

Scandanavia somewhere (though arent they generally expensive?), or canada, trip to asia somewhere

Degag

The US or Australia methinks, although i have visions of snakes and spiders trying to kill me if i did.

epgc3fyqirnbsx

I'd live in Banff in the Canadian Rockies.
You looking to work somewhere or just chill?

johnnyjb

Id wait till next year and buy about 10 houses that are lying idle:D.You might have enough change to go for a dirty weekend in ireland aswell.

Orla K

Chile and a general wander around south america

ColaBeDamned

China or New Zealand.

Agricola

If money / work wasnt the major concern Id go somewhere with proper seasons or somewhere just with sun for 10 months of the year.
A house near the beach near a coastal Austrailian town, near one of the big cities but not right in the middle of it.
Or somewhere in the mediterranean.

Duggy747

Japan (Tokyo, maybe)

It's as close to another planet as your gonna get! Bunch of polite wierdos!

That or Kerry..........don't think I've ever been in that county! :pac:

Bullhead City Nevada

Hottest most eager chicks in the whole USA.

I would choose Paris, France everytime. I've been there twice on holiday and I'm in love with this city. In this city, I wouldn't care how little I had. I would marvel at the architecture around me and there is great diversity on the streets. I feel Paris is the one place I could go with absolutely nothing and still be happy. Ideally, I would live and work there for some period in the future. I believe there are many interesting people to meet there as it gets 26 million tourists a year. I would walk along the Seine and have coffee in view of the Eiffel Tower. I could not imagine anything more perfect. On a side note, I would love to go to Sweden just because I belive swedish girls are the most attractive.

degausserxo

Canada or Morocco.

Bullhead is in Arizona.

Depends on whether or not you intend to work.

6000 euro wouldn't last too long in Australia if you're not working.

However, you could make it last 6 or 7 months in Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia without working.

In the first 2 places, you could get work for a bar where they'd look after your meals and accommodation and some booze. That way, you could make your 6k last a full year.

But do you really wanna be pissed for a whole year? (cue some people who say they'd love to, but they're the ones who obviously haven't done backpacking; pissed every night gets exhausting, and I love my drink).

Latchy

Can we spend 6 months in two different countrys ?

So many choices and first thoughts drift to a nice warm sunny climate ,someplace like Italy or Portugal but Paris also has an attraction for me .I was once there on a trip to Disneyland and got to walk down the champs the lycee for a bit and would be nice to sample the Parisian way of life for a bit .

Scarydoll

Quebec, Canada

rainbow kirby

Vancouver, Canada.

FatherTed

I'd go to Lisdoonvarna.

biko

Spain, where it never rains on the plains.

m5ex9oqjawdg2i

Middle Earth, all the way baby. 6K could get me a nice sword and bow I would guess. Hunt me some orcs, live off the land, just like the Edain... I dislike fantasy for showing me what I can never have.

Ah crap, that's my holiday in Spain this summer ruined.

Probably Aussieland but Brazil sounds very tempting if it were not for the high murder rate.

RacoonQueen

Scandinavia, I've always wanted to go there.

thefireinside

Lotsa Canadia fans on here then?!

With 6 grand I would avoid western type countries like the plague... Why not be a little more adventurous and head for, as others have said, South America or SE Asia... Savage spots, a real refreshing break from life over here! 6 grand will get you pretty far too... I've done South Amer and i'd go back in a shot... DO IT!!

Jaxxy

Back to New Zealand.

the whole year inn

In Toronto now and he is right money goes fast very fast.Toronto is a great spot wouldn't mind have a gander at the rest of the country .All in time.

If not here Id say Jamaica.

Adyx

I've been thinking of doing something similiar though always kind of playing on my mind is "what would I do after doing that?" and I always put it off.

I guess I'd like to go to Canada. I've heard only good things about the whole place and Vancouver in particular.

Let us know how you get on if this becomes a reality soon.:)

Id go to one of the many Ashrams in India and meditate for a year. Leave all the materialistic **** behind......
