I am starting a Trip Around the World!

And this is my plan.

I have been to 3 countries so far and to keep a promise to Grandpa I need to visit 64 more. Any suggestions? I will be living in some of them for a while to earn the money for the next leg of the trip. I need good ways to find places to stay for months at a time and jobs that will pay at east ok and not expect me to stay for more then 6 months. Or I need a job that sends me around the world. I will be posting a list of countries here shortly.

Countries:
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canary islands, Chile, China, Cyprus, Czech Republic,Denmark,Easter Island, Egypt, England, Ethiopia, Finland, France, Galapagos Islands, Germany, Greece, Greenland, Guatemala, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Kenya, Lithuania, Madagascar, Malaysia, Malta, Monaco, Mongolia, Morocco, New Zealand, Norway, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Srilanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Tibet, Tobago, Trinidad, Turkey, Vatican, Venezuela, Vietnam,
need 0 more… I have them all! YAY!!

Bases of operation: Ireland, Taiwan,

BUT contribute anyways, my plans might change, and I need others, in case of visa problems.

And planning tips! I need panning tips!

France, Italy, Greece, Cyprus so that you will have visited all the mediterranean countries along with Spain. If you like the idea make sure you come to Greece after April so that you’re here for the summer!

i can see why you want to travel being from “the couv”… oh yes i know the glory from which you hail. I am from an even more gloooooooorious place Longview!!!!!!!! ugh. I now live in Philly (eh yo!) but have been traveling a bit myself in recent years. Personally I recommend staying south of the equator. Things are just cheaper down there. Of coarse you’re exp. will be much different. You will see more poverty, etc. but the exp is very rich. I was in africa for a month this last summer and it was amazing! Or you could be like every other schmoh and go on a “european vaca” and blow thousands of $$$. Depends on the exp you want. good luck in whatever you choo-choo-choose! (quoting ralph wiggum)

What allot of people here do is go “inter-railing” around Europe, you can essentially get anywhere and it would be a backpacking type dealey, as for planning tips the first thing you want is comprehensive insurance, so if you find yourself somewhere with no money and no work you can still get home.
In Ireland the best places to visit are; Kerry which is apparently the most beautiful place in Ireland, Dublin our capital and where the Guinness brewery is hehe, Cork, I hate Cork with a passion but it’s a nice place and Galway which is a very bohemian place. I strongly recommend you go to Granada in Spain it is beautiful and you could always give Portugal a go too, Praia De Rocha in Portugal was nice, very quiet though. Also Thailand is a must, I highly recommend Phuket, I’ve been to Thailand 8 times and nearly every time I’ve gone to Phuket. Also I have some powerful friends over there who can help you out if you have any problems. As for Australia, Sydney is very expensive and I hear Melbourne is a great place. I’d go to the west coast Of Australia if it was me, but then I grew up there. There are loads of kickass little places on the west cost, the main two being Fremantle and Margeret River, the town I grew up in is Bunbury but there’s not much to see there. I have heard nothing but good about Berlin in Germany. You should definitely go to Alaska and Canada just because they are so near. Cornwall in England is nice, very funny accents and there’s a surfer town called New Quey that gets very hot weather in the summer. Oh sorry Wexford in Ireland is a great place for summer weather and Belfast is worth a visit just to see. You can take day busses or trains from Dublin to see anywhere in Ireland. My gf was in Barbados recently and highly recommends it. If you do get over here I’ll bring you to the best pubs in Dublin for Guinness ;)

Italy is very expensive, so much so it’s actually prevented me from going. Sorento looks extremely beautiful though, but you’ll need a nice chunk of money to enjoy it. As far as I remember it’s a teeny lil fishing village…

I know they are states of the America, but you could say spend a month in America and go to the huge touristy places without wanting to travel to entirely different places - Alaska and Hawaii are far enough from mainland USA to be considered separate countries for this purpose.
