Title: Travellers Post by: RappersDelight on Monday, January 2, 2006, 22:22:53 i need some recommendations on what countries to see and visit for when i book my travelling in about 6 weeks, going for about a year after the world cup want some places that are a must?
Title: Travellers Post by: Compo on Monday, January 2, 2006, 22:27:02 Any where in the far east is great, but the best is north Thailand, Chaing Mai and Chaing Rai also go up the east coast of Oz but take ur time cuz there is so much to see, and then a week or so getting pissed in Cairns..
Have fun........ Title: Travellers Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Monday, January 2, 2006, 22:54:21 oooh im going after the world cup too. im going to get my photo taken in my swindon shirt at every great place.
Im going for a year too. How much dosh are you taking? Title: Travellers Post by: reeves4england on Monday, January 2, 2006, 22:57:03 I would advise a small island just off Tenerife called La Gomera. If you stayed very briefly would be great. YOU CAN GO IN THE RAINFOREST!!!
Always wanted to do that Title: Travellers Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Monday, January 2, 2006, 22:58:31 i dont think people generally go travelling to Tenerife
Title: Travellers Post by: oxford_fan on Monday, January 2, 2006, 23:01:58 i'd say the best way to pick places to go is to look at a globe and read a little about countries that appeal to you

yeah i'm prob not going to many places in europe as hoping to go to a few in the days off between each game in germany. still not sure how much money to take yet, i'm got about £8k so far but hoping to save alot more too, can never take too much! how much are you taking? Title: Travellers Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Monday, January 2, 2006, 23:06:33 my plan is this:
Leaving Sept 1st London -> New york San Francisco -> Mexico City Mexico City -> Rio Rio -> Sao Paolo Sao Paolo -> Santiago Santiago-> New Zealand New Zealand -> Australia Australie -> Singapore Singapore -> Thailand Thailand -> Vietnam Vietnam -> Zurich Zurich -> train back to England via Croatia, Bulgaria, other countries that we will decide when we're there. Title: Travellers Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Monday, January 2, 2006, 23:09:20 I've got 5k in premium bonds, £1500 in an ISA and roughly £3000 in my bank. I'm paying £500 a month into a savings account for exactly a year (fixed interest rate so cant take any out till a year is up).
but im going to world cup for 2 weeks which will cost me quite a bit. Title: Travellers Post by: Danjackson10 on Monday, January 2, 2006, 23:18:43 Croatia is wicked! the people are great!

Title: Travellers Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 22:13:41 On top of it. Made my first payment december 10th so I will have to pay 2 more payments after I leave... which is a bit crap. but i just couldnt turn down the 10% savings account.
