Virgin backpacker.......?

Question

Where would you advise me to start my journey?

Answer 1

U decide and i'll join u. lol

Answer 2

I'd recommend Thailand. Seeing the sights in much of Thailand is relatively inexpensive. Even a visit to the Grand Palace in Bangkok or Wat Po only costs a couple hundred baht admission. Excursions are more costly, and most day trips are around 1500 - 2000 Baht. e.g. seeing the Bridge over the River Kwai and the Tiger Temple, a day trip to the temples of Ayutthaya, kayaking in Krabi, elephant trekking in Khao Sok etc. You don’t need to plan doing many of these things very far in advance - booking a day or so ahead is usually fine. But you’ll need to have some money set aside in your budget all the same.

Airfares are cheap thanks to budget carriers like AirAsia.com and NokAir.com. One way flights to Chiang Mai and Phuket from Bangkok are around 2000 Baht including all taxes, which are usually more expensive than the flights themselves. There are also many special offers.

Accommodation will be around 1000 baht a day if you want a proper hotel with a swimming pool and air conditioning. It depends on what you consider acceptable.  G'luck!!!

Answer 3

Eastern europe is great. Prague to Berlin would be good.

Answer 5

America :) like the film " Elizabeth town" and she plans a trip for him (road trip) and he sees all these amaxing things. But not torist attractions, so you see things that not everyone has.

Answer 6

my mate marlow says Australia is a great place to start off, there are loads of hostels for backpackers, loads to do, & of course no language barrier. a good bit of advice wherever you go is to get a 'Lonely planet guide' for the country your going to. most good bookshops either have them or can order one for you, failing that, amazon will have it. it has info like prices of hostels, places of interest, living costs, everything you need to know, any other Q's email me, ill ask him...

Answer 7

the place you want to go

Answer 8

Are you travelling alone? Or with some friends?

IF SO, you could travel to any European countries.

If not, try New Zealand or Australia. My aunt, 40, travelled solo around Oz and NZ for about a year-- AND LOVED IT! It's such a beautiful continent/country. You can be in the Ularu one day, and then be backpacking to the Opera House. Plus, Australia is known its friendly people-- they are always willing to help you out! I absolutely just loved it there.

Answer 9

? in a single's bar.

Then you will be just a regular backpacker.

Seriously, Australia and New Zealand are great places to go backpacking especially if you haven't done much travelling before.
