For long weekends:
Florence, berlin, venice, verona, pomei etc.

I went to madrid last year and enjoied it. Prices are low (respect to Italy) food great good museum people outside until very late even in weekdays

Madrid is nice and you can go on a day trip to Segovia or Toledo if you want something more scenic.

As an alternative I'd recommend Stockholm if you can postpone it until April, when cherry blossom trees bloom and the weather is a bit nicer. The prices however are a bit higher.

Madrid is plenty fun, although I'm more familiar with Toledo. I spent six weeks there last summer and I can say it's definitely worth a day trip at least. Incredible history. One of the only cities in the world with an extensive blend of Christian, Muslim, and Jewish culture. The art and architecture are among the best in Spain.

Before leaving for worm every morning, I verify I have life insurance and proof read my will.

Holy shit, really? Is it that fast and scary? Do you want to tone it down for a little bit?

What country was it? How much money you lost on this trip?

>>1062672
Germany. Not much, tbqh, especially considering I'm here for 5 weeks.

>>1062675
Is it really boring in there? My bro told me that it's one of the most boring countries ever.

You don't need to do anything besides pack, there is no security on buses generally, the only exception to this is buses entering the northeast and central infrastructure regions of the U.S. Ideally every bus journey would be searched, but there are so many that only the ones going to critical parts of the country like Washington and New York are searched

So I just hand them my ticket and get on?

>Now you have this tourist attraction but you'll only access part of the catacombs. Anyone know of any guided tours that go into other area's of the catacombs?
Heard they are illegal access, so you likely won't find it advertised (if it exists).

>>1062317
One of my mates visited some of the no-access areas but it was while he was spending a year there for uni and he did it with a group of friends he met in the uni's outdoors club - I doubt there's any easy way of doing it as a tourist.

>>1062292
Why, consulting of course.

>>1062296
Enlighten me if you will

>>1062265
Fok yeah. Get some decent food and best women. Just remember that France has everything from alps to surf beaches, so think where you want to go.

>>1062265
>Should I go on a gap year?
yes
>France
maybe not

My general advice for foreign data is have an unlocked smart phone and a good mobile data plan. Use your phone to tether/WiFi Hotspot when necessary.

I researched a whole bunch and I ended up closing between eConnect and Global Advanced. Depending on the speeds you want and how much you use though? Any estimates on how much you'd be using?

If you have more money ricoh grv

As the owner of a gopro 4 black, they are wonderful cameras, but they lack in battery life and are far more suited as an action cam.

Suppose I should note the work is with cows,sheep,horses. Just light farm work and stable cleaning it said.

Shoveling shit is not as easy for those not used to it as it might seem to a farmer who does it all the time.

Still, it won't kill you. And if it does, at least you got to go to Iceland.

What sort of things interest you?

I could write up all the best examples of church architecture for you, but won't waste the time unless you are into that.

In the unlikely chance that you do not want to spend your time looking at churches, maybe somebody here knows about just wast you are looking for, if you give them a few hints about your interests.

I've heard Aifur is supposed to be a nice restaurant

Chill OP. You don't need yellow fever if you're sticking to Thailand. Go to the hospital for tropical disease when you get to Bangkok, it's just off from Monument square. They're a modern professional hospital and do cheap vaccines (it's recommended to get hep a and b as well as update your tetanus/diphtheria if you haven't already. Japanese encephalitis is something they'll offer too, it's nasty but really rare unless you plan to sit in a rice paddy for 6 months. Only issue is hep a and b take 3 shots spread out over a month. I'm at the end of a 6 month trip here including Cambodia Vietnam laos etc and haven't had any vaccines at all. Just make sure the street food you eat is well cooked and made in front of you. Don't drink the the tap water (brushing teeth etc is fine, especially in resorts.)

No, but if you have the time get all the shots you think you'l ever need in Bangkok. I did at some hospital attached to a snake farm.

p.s. I had my vaccination book stolen since then, including my yellow fever which I had done some time before, but I have pictures of it all. Fucking sucks.

>>1062010
...BTW the reason I went was to get typhoid booster, which is really the important one if you have your Hep shots which you probably already do.

Can't really help with budget stuff sorry, but from memory it's not too expensive? Internal flights are where most of your money will go

Head to pentecost for the tribal stuff, and make sure you climb that volcano on tanna. There's some decent off-the-beach snorkelling on tanna and ok stuff on that tiny island in Port villa. Probs nothing like the diving though I guess

Take a ferry across the mersey
