For my 21st later this year, I’m thinking of taking off and going backpacking for a month (4weeks). I live in Australia and want to visit USA, Canada, Asia maybe, Europe & England.

How much money would I need to do this? au$

Best answer:

Answer by Allow M
A month for three different continents? That is probably three to six months for a start.

You need to add up airfares. work out how many days per country and estimate a regular rate for food and lodging and add in internal travel an admusements.

Rough estimate – airfare $ 2000- $ 4000, $ 100 a day regular rate. You would need about 10 grand.

Preferably on the lake edge. And we fly in via Bergamo airfield so simple access from there would be great. Or does anyone know any forums for this kind of info?

From Might 2nd til August 2nd I’m going around the world, stopping at Japan, Thailand, Australia and America; I’m trying to compile an inventory of stuff to take. How many clothes? I don’t wanna have too many cos we’ll be doing lots of trekking, especially in Thailand. What else, camera, medikit, insurance documents, passport, boots, sunglasses, sprays, adaptor plugs, fly net (?)….

I am looking for a beach front hotel to visit – preferably between San Diego and Los Angeles, but closer to San Diego is preferred. We have 3 children and they are requesting a water slide in the hotel and we want to rent wave runners without having to trek the children anywhere far. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Question by : Hiking The Great Wall of China?
{thumbnail}
Listen up folks! If and when you come to China, you simply MUST see The Great Wall, all 8,851 km of it! Okay, not the whole thing! Dating back to the 5th Century BC, the 10 Kilometers that we hiked from Jinshanling to Simatai is definitely the most memorable thing we have experienced so far on our trip.

Are there other hikes acquirable on The Great Wall?

We are interested in possibly doing a multiple day adventure.

Answer by Slim
I think you should go elsewhere and not give the chinese your hard attained American cash,,,

Q&A: Backpacking and staying at Hostels in Europe?

Thu, 17 May 2012 12:16:51 +0000

Question by Justin C: Backpacking and staying at Hostels in Europe?
{thumbnail}
Is there a hostel company in Europe where I can pay a membership fee and stay at different hostels in Europe for free or for a lesser price. I’ll be backpacking for about a month and stay at all different places. I was looking to see if there was a pass like the eurorail pass. You can go to all countries in a month for a certain price.

Thanks guys.

Best answer:

Answer by SUE
Yeah. It’s called the International Youth Hostels. They have a website. If I remember correctly, you purchase your card at the first hostel, and you purchase a sheet bag, and use it each night.

The International Hostels are the best, they are cheap, clean, and safe. People have to help with housekeeping, and since everyone is pretty much doing the same thing, there’s tons of sharing, of time, ideas, often people hook up for a few days as travel buddies, people change plans to hang together for a few days. People give ideas of what to do, where to go.
