| Best destinations for traveling alone...
So some of my friends have done backpacking on their own to South America and Southeast Asia. I am thinking about going on a trip by myself in the coming months too, but preferably some cities in North America. The trip will be under 10 days and I got around $1000 +/- to spend.
Any good suggestions?

Ok, in all seriousness - $1000 to spend - is this budgeted for the ENTIRE trip? Or just for living expenses (i.e. food/hostel/souvenirs etc.)

What do you like doing? I think it would be more expensive in North America than say Asia and South America. I went to China for 2 weeks went to 4 different cities, did and saw alot of things. I spent about 1k for my plane ticket, but only spent 700 for everything (food, travel, gifts etc...). I did stay at hostels the entire time tho.

I am thinking about going to Asia again next year, because I have relatives all over and they can give me places to stay. I was in China for about a month and it was a great experience. For now I am thinking just going to a large city area in North America, walk around and do some sight seeing. Perhaps also go check out a large concert/festival that is happening in the area. I am thinking somewhere around NYC or Cali/LA?

i went to LA/LV/San deigo last summer and i only spent 2000 or maybe not even loll
(that includes hotel, things i bought, and going to Disneyland/universal studio/ and sea world. Rented a car with friends and everything) and we went for around
2 in a half weeks~
just search online on like bookit.com
to look for deals on places because it is possible to save a lot of moneyy

Maybe you should just go to Portland and shop for 10 days...With $1000 it's pretty limited.

On a budget, and with the strong CAD, I think NYC is fine for $1000. You don't have to eat out at michelin places! NYC is fun!

$1000 is a not alot for NYC, NoCal, SoCal. If your $1000 doesn't include airfare and hotel I would suggest Thailand or the Philippines. You can live pretty lavishly for 10 days with about $1000. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Thailand. You can be pampered like a king and the money conversion works very well in Canadian's favor.

Use protection, keep your mouth as far as possible from the whore, and make sure they're the gender you're looking for. If you want a tranny, I won't judge, but getting sucked off by a dude(when you're not looking for it) is equivalent to being raped. And they don't make rape kits for men.
