I'm hoping that we could get some suggestions for our next travel :) Obviously our goal (as always) is to find Paradise. So, please, come we all the suggestions you might have :) | ||
Camping on Whitehaven Beach in Australia and having the whole beach for yourself might be the most paradise-like experience I've had. It's a bit pricey though. Otherwise, take your pick in South America or Southeast Asia. Colombia, Cuba, Malaysia, Philippines are some of my favorites. | 1 | |
Apart from warm and new...what do you like? Beaches,cultural stuff,trekking,food ? or something else? Also..how long can you travel for? Have you got a time limit? Where have you already been to in Africa? | 2 | |
plenty of great destinations in South America, SE Asia or somewhere like India.....like Lucapal says where suits you best depends on your interests, time frame and budget, | 3 | |
Brazil, Indonesia, Laos, Burma, Panama, Nicaragua, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Oman, Sri Lanka, Colombia, Cuba, Guyana, Kenya, Cameroon.......... the list is long. Give us a few more ideas of what you enjoy (culture, wildlife, beaches, mountains.... ) | 4 | |
I suggest you look at a world map and decide where you are both interested in going. What is the point of people listing here all the places you have not been? A list of 100 countries other people like doesn't mean you will like any of them. As far as I am concerned, you are asking people to waste their time doing so. Do your own homework. | 5 | |
there is a suburb in Adelaide Australia called Paradise so perhaps you could go straight there but I doubt if there is any backpacker facilities | 6 | |
as others have said we need more specific info to advise you properly, but assuming a few months travel on a midrange budget, i would pick a few places in se asia. thailand, malaysia and singapore. if you have longer than a few months then add more places and vice versa. | 7 | |
I hate questions like this. And,"I'm going to Paris, what should I wear?' Lady, zero in on the hemishere. Just to help us help you. | 8 | |
