Advice where to travel?

[Ree Fresh]

Thailand for the month of July looks less and less promising :(

However im still in dire need to backpack it somewhere! Im giving myself 1-2 weeks and the most of $2000 to spend in total. I plan to go either early july or late Augest... looking for culture and prefebly nice tropic beaches :D

Any advise? Festables to check out? Or knowlege of any deals that come around this time?

cheers

i would say go to somewhere in europe... no where around here seems worth $2000

I do plan in the future to spend a good 3 months-year working/backpacking south east asia and europe... Im looking for somthing crazy that I dont have to rush and stay away from those resort places... Ill probly also be traveling alone.

And Iraq will have to wait a bit :)

Southeast Asia, I'd totally reccomend going to Laos and Cambodia, it's really easy to avoid the whole tourist hubub in either country, it's cheap, and it can just be breathtaking. I'd take extra caution if you are going to Cambodia, there are a lot of really nice khmers, but their government/police force are reaaallly corrupt, they prey on white tourists! haha

As for Europe, do Norway! It's got white sandy beaches in the summer and amazing mountains to snowboard on in the winter, it's a beaaautiful country.

lol if you wait until September I might be going to Munich, Germany for Oktoberfest. Europe is the best idea for backpacking around, it's much easier to travel from France to Poland than it used to be. Good thing about the EU.

have you considered south/central america? flights tend to be expensive, but if you find a cheap one then living costs are super low. i've always been interested in doing a guatemala-belize-yucatan trip. looks like i'll be staying "continental" (heh) this summer though, hopefully making a few trips around BC and maybe a couple out east to toronto and new york. i'm getting the backpacking urge too. *twitches*
