Driving to Mexico from New Mexico, USA Share expenses

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.

Looking for travel companion in Lima

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

Arriving in BKK Dec 6 or 8th till the 14th. Up for anything.

Anyone going to be in BKK around that time that wants to plan a trip or organize something?
I'm 25 M from NY and up for anything. Hit me up with any ideas you have. I was thinking of heading north this time to check out Chang Mai and the Mountains.

Christmas in Europe!

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! :-)

Enjoy a little travel talk?

http://www.corbettstravels.com

Hi everybody.

I was recently browsing the web and saw that there really aren’t many chat rooms on the well known travel websites. Of course you have the terrific forums that we all use but sometimes I really feel like logging on and having a good chat with like minded people.

So, I am adding a Live Video & Chat Room to my blog at www.corbettstravels.com Here we have a very small community of passionate travellers. It’s going live on Sunday 29th November at 8pm UK time and would love it if as many people as possible would come and say hi.

I’m hoping over time, more and more people will become members and come along regularly to have a good chat and to make some new friends.

Sunday 29th November at 8pm UK time at www.corbettstravels.com

See you there. more »
