Totally recommend NZ *flicks hair*

I’m off to Sydney in three weeks for just over a week, but if I could go anywhere I’d either go back to the uk for a bit (see the fam eat the snacks etc) or go to Disney World ngl

If money weren't an object? I'd go on a world cruise.

I loved India so would love over a few months to see the former Raj (India, Burma, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka) and take my time. I am planning on backpacking after August 2019 (when my contract finishes) so I am considering what to do. One possibility is doing a Cape to Cairo route of the former British colonies (South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, The Sudan and Egypt) although I am open to South America and Asia too. I'll think about it more in-depth next year. Who knows.

I'm supposed to be booking 9 days away with my friend for New Year tonight. We keep switching between Cuba, Mexico and Sri Lanka depending on price so depends what we see tonight when we book. Sri Lanka we're leaning towards as it's geographically the size of Southern Ireland so would be possible to trek through a lot over 9 days there.


@Blance (https://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=130555); You could travel European countries for much cheaper than that. Just book a plane to the cheapest place and stay in hostels and get coaches/rail etc. You'd soon meet people doing the same as you continental cities like Madrid, Barcelona, Paris and Budapest are full of Americans and Australians in the summer months doing the same. You could easily turn up without a regimented plan and just go with the flow.

I reckon you could easily manage for $3,000 to get at least 10 countries in your trip.

I've never been abroad, only been to Wales, Scotland and I live in England. I think I'm going to get a passport within the next year and explore a bit more though! I would love to go to the USA or Australia, potentially France (Paris) too.

I'm a real homebody so wouldn't really want to go away anywhere for a LONG time. I'd say like 3 weeks max.

BUT I actually hate hate travelling itself so yes while I'd love to see NZ and Australia I could never imagine myself getting on a plane for THAT long. Waiting until they bring back Concorde or teleportation :') like 8h is my max for travelling in 1 go...

Can always do it in legs, but that would probably mean you’d have to be away longer. When we first moved over here we stopped in California for two weeks which is essentially halfway so the travel time didn’t seem so bad.

I don’t mind travel at all so the NZ-UK flights are fine for me personally but the worst thing is on the way back when you’ve done a 12 and 16 hour flight (via Dubai) and land in Aussie and you have that last 3 hours to go when you really don’t want to get back on a plane.

I have like.... absolutely no desire to visit Asia whatsoever and I've never heard of a leg going the other way!! Would totally do like a week in California then over to NZ!

I think Dubai tends to be the cheaper route as it’s emirates so that’s why most go that way, but definitely worth looking into the America route if you’re wanting to go there too

I would like to go to the big cities like London, New York. I haven’t really left Australia except for Germany which was amazing and I would definitely go back, but I was there for three weeks and by the end was ready to go home, I’m a homebody so wouldn’t want to be gone for a huge amount of time.

I would love to travel the whole world. Not sure of how many days of duration. As long as I'm feeling happy with it ;)

Greece is fantastic. I've been to quite a few places there (Athens, Olympia, Corfu, Mykonos, Rhodes, Santorini)

Santorini is unbelievable. The most beautiful place I've ever been.


I loved India so would love over a few months to see the former Raj (India, Burma, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka) and take my time. I am planning on backpacking after August 2019 (when my contract finishes) so I am considering what to do.

The Cape to Cairo sounds really interesting. I'd never have the balls to do a trip like that.

Opens up a whole new world Sam. Some of the places in the world are breathtaking. Paris is a nice starter as you can get the Eurostar if you don't like flying.

Travelling is a right pain but totally worth it when you're there. We spent over 24 hours travelling to Puerto Rico :P

I went to NZ via Dubai, then went onto Sydney then to Auckland, I was exhausted from travelling and jet lag!
