Hook up and head off, find the travel pal you misplaced all those years ago or buy and sell your wares to make that trip even cheaper.
Want to swap accommodation (or your couch) with someone on the other side of the world?

Hi,
I am an Indian, and have been living in Norway for last 7 years. Have not traveled so much in Europe, have been busy with studies and then job.
Since I have 1-2 weeks of my vacations left of this year, I am planning to travel to somewhere in Europe around Christmas. I am thinking of many options; for example Barcelona, Gran Canaria, Amsterdam or may be Praha.
1. What do you guys say about these places? Where would it be best to be around Christmas? Appriaciate if you share your expierence!
2. Is someone there with similiar plan/destinations? And would like to have a Companion? Actually I am very flexible so if you have a better destination in mind just let me know as well!
Thanks in advance for all the suggestions!
Live and let live! :-)

Want a cheap ride to Mexico? I'm looking for a passenger to share expenses of driving to Guadalajara, Mexico. Passenger pays 200 usd which includes their share of the gas and toll road. Leaving Santa Fe, NM Saturday 12 December at noon and arriving in the city of Guadalajara, Mexico on the 14 December. Passenger will sleep in front in the cab of my F150 pick-up for 2 nights and I in the back under the camping shell. Passenger must have valid passport and no criminal record. I am a 40 year old male resident of Santa Fe going on vacation to southern Mexico for the Christmas season. I can pick up along towns on Interstate 25 and drop off early if necessary.

Just ending a 10 week trip in Nepal, North India and Bangladesh and planning the second leg now after a long internal debate as to where to go. I am now heading to Columbia arriving December 10 in Bogota. My plan is Columbia, T&T (may be), breeze through Venezuela to Guyanas, Suriname and make my way ending to Salvador Bahia. No time frame.....
I have been to both Columbia and Venezuela but left several places untouched.
I speak English, Spanish, and French fluently and can get by in Portuguese.
I am not rock bottom backpacking but enjoy simple accommodation and food. The Guyanas will have to be creative with accommodation.
I like challenges and risk at times so I dont always take the easiest route to the easiest places.
if you are anywhere around there and want to hook up for some portions of this trip or all......drop me a PM will be glad to share more.
cheers!!!

Hey...
I'll be in San Francisco from next we and I will have a few weeks to head to Mexico City where i'll spend Christmas. So I intend to spend 10-14 days to go through "extended" California (up to Las Vegas). Then, I'd like to go in Baja-California for ~1 week and head to Mexico C by plane. After Christmas, I'll have ~ 10 days left and a new year eve to celebrate but I don't know where right now : Yucatan? Cuba (too short?)?
So, if you are around or if yoy've got tips/ideas/suggestions on these different places, please don't hesitate : rrdhfr (at) yahoo.fr or http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?ref=profile&id=645384249 on Facebook (Lonely Planet's replies are usually spams in my mailbox)...
About me : 27yo French girl, love travelling, LOVE PHOTO, interested in nature and people with initiative and ideas, usually easy-going...
Best regards

Hi, I'm a 30-something UK female planning to travel in India for 3 months from early December. Loosely the idea is to fly into Mumbai then travel around southern India (Kerala, Chennai, Hampi) and East coast for until New year, then head up to Varanasi and on up to Nepal before heading back to Delhi as kick off point to investigate Rajasthan til early March.
I've travelled independently in South America, SE Asia, but this will be my first trip to India. I'm pretty easy going looking for interesting and fun folk to spend time with for some or all of the trip. I'm interested in chilling out, having fun, visiting interesting places, eating amazing food and having a few beers along the way.
Particularly keen to find friends for the first part of my trip - maybe Xmas & New Year,
look forward to hearing from you,
Bakes

Hi All,
I will be in Lima from about 22 February for a week or so and would love to have a travelling companion to check out the sights with. I am a Australian female in my twenties. Otherwise if you have any ideas of where to stay and what to do that would be fantastic.
Cheers,
Leisa

Hello all...
Some of you may have read my post on the Gay & Lesbian Travels Forums... Am a fairly easy traveller myself and wouldnt mind the company of any other traveller(s) around mumbai during the x'mas / new years weekend... am not really into much of the loud party scene as dont intend paying through my nose to eventually become deaf the next morning ... :)
I am 34yrs of age, single and a resident of mumbai... anyone visiting mumbai and needing a place can always refer to my other posts and write in... would be happy to help but meanwhile... if someone does share my thoughts on getting out of this maddening city for the weekend... drop me a line in here or send me a PM... I am a smoker (though dont smoke heavily)... prefer some basic comfortable accomodation (where available)... well travelled globally... though am yet to do nearby countries like Sri Lanka, Maldives etc... ...

Anyone interested in living 20 miles from Aspen in a 3 bedroom/2 bath mobile home in exchange for pet care and paying the lot rent and your own utilities - $525 + gas and electric. Internet, Phone, Satellite optional. One bird. Rentals in this area run about $1400 so you'd be saving $950.

Hello,
I will be finishing a volunteer assignment in Ghana and then headed to East Africa before returning to Colorado and the US. Would like to join a group or create a group to share expenses from January 29th to Feb 3rd. Have recommendations and quotes from a few operators. Want to go midrange in tents and/or lodges and open to biking and canoeing options. Have traveled solo before and am ready to experience Tanzania!

Hi All,
My friend and I are planning to drive from London to Cape Town in early February 2010 (as early as possible). Early February is now set in stone as we are both leaving work for this trip. If you fancy some adventure then read on!
We are Mike and Christine. Mike has a 300 series Landrover Defender called Himba which has been built from scratch to a decent expedition spec. We are looking for 1-2 people to join us on this trip.
The trip should take around 6 months and take in:
Libya
Tunisia
Egypt
Sudan
Ethiopia
Kenya
Rwanda
Uganda
Tanzania
Malawi
Zambia
Botswana
Namibia and
South Africa
Mike is a 28 year old male from London. I'm Christine, a 26 year old female from Dublin. We have both had enough of city life and want to fulfil a life long ambition! Mike has been lucky to have travelled quite extensively through Europe, the US, Canada, Central America...
