Vacations

VoidIfRemoved · 09-08-2009, 05:34 PM

I've only travelled round Europe so far but I really want to go backpacking in Singapore and Malaysia next Summer.
My favourite place I've ever travelled to is Thessaloniki in Greece, beautiful part of the world and very peaceful. I enjoy any holiday that involves moving about a country seeing a few different cities and hopefully a few outdoor activities - i.e kayaking, abseiling etc.

Well right now I'm 'holidaying' in New Zealand! I'm a little bored though... the friend I'm staying with works full-time and I promised I'd wait for my boyfriend to get here before I do any cool sight-seeing.

Although the culture is pretty much exactly the same as Australia, the landscape and climate are completely different. I love the cold weather, I got to see real snow, and almost everybody you meet was a LOTR film extra!

It is the most beautiful place I have ever seen, I want to live here.

Any New Zealand MBers want to adopt me?

MY Beach is pretty awesome=]
SOuth Padre Island is always BUmpin!
when i get all stressed out , i tell my kiddos to jump in the van and we head out to POrt Isabel for the weekend.

Jacuzzi Suite, seaside, with a cooler full of Brews, Some Bud , MUsic and a BEach CHair.

Fabulous.

Anyways, i havent had a vacation in a while.

Amsterdam was a great couple days.
Romania is a good one if you know where to go.
I'd say no to anything in Germany except maybe Berlin. Or if you're into old castles you can travel all along the Rhine and visit some proper relics. That's always a good time.

Up in the mountains. It's actually spring fed so it's nice and cool year 'round. I'm back home now, though.

I'm considering moving there.

I've now taken 2 trips to Las Vegas in back-to-back years, and I think it's a great place to unwind for 3-4 days.

My favorite vacation is a drive up North to stay in a cabin resort in the forest. Been going for about 15+ years now... it's really hard to describe to others how jumping off rocks into water, fishing, ping pong, pool, and drinking at a bar is all that special- but it really is. I will go to this place each year for the rest of my life, if I can.

Finally- my real fascination right now is South America... I'm currently planning my 4 week trip to Brazil for the 2014 World Cup.
