Thinking of travelling by myself next year to somewhere like Colombia for a week.

Has anyone done the backpacking thing where you travel from place to place in the country? I'm hearing people say you don't need that much money but I'm trying to understand how considering food, accommodation, trains/coaches/planes. This is completely new to me but would love any advice. Probably gonna do more weekends to Europe as well but South America has always been on my bucket list.

Did a similar trip 8 black guys but didn't have a package.

We did the Bar Crawl, Shooting Range and Go-Karting as well. Highly recommend all three. Also went to Karlovy Lazne twice - absinthe makes everything crazy

On our last day we just had a chilled walk up to the castle and looked out over the City. Picturesque!

I'm heading Peru and Bolivia on my jacks in late 2018. Gonna save hard for it.

Only two to three weeks. I have started going to all the places that are special in my beliefs (Mexico, now going Egypt in a month from today). Bolivia and Peru will be a major part of that! I'll head there after I've had a kid though, fuck catching Zika there and then breeding! After that, will head to south east Asia, Cambodia and Indonesia most preferably with a stop in India.

Titan my only advice is to make it 3 weeks at least rather than 1. There's too much too see and it's a long way to travel for only one week. 

Does remind me. Wham for @Woodpecker?

I hear that.  You do need longer if you're travelling that far but I was contemplating doing it next year but I didn't think I would have enough annual leave as I'm going Barbados again in August.  Guess it will have to be something I do in 2018/19 maybe and do it properly.

Back packed by myself across south America (a bit in central) for 3 months and a half. I didn’t know anything about south America, did zero research. I just booked my flight into costa rica and out of brazil. Best experience of my life.

It’s not expensive, so if you’re smart with your money you’ll be fine. Stay in hostels, never hotels. You should definitely go for longer than 1 week, it will take you about 2 to 3 days to adjust to the time difference alone.

Again, Hostels are a must. The moment you walk into the first hostel you’ll instantly make friends, and becuz everyone is in this state of mind where they are free, open and happy, you can really connect with people. Don’t even get me started on the women. TBH it’s where I learned the difference between people I get along with and people that are MY people (if that makes sense).

Thanks for that. Looks like if I'm going to do it properly it needs to be at least a month and a half so I would need to be able to take a break from employment for a while. Will probably pm you with more questions in a little bit.

Going Copenhagen in April for 4/5 days. Didn't realise when I booked it's bank holiday weekend the weekend before so may as well book time off in between. Will have to change flights but got them dirt cheap anyway in the election sales (£20 return).

Anyone got any quickfire recommendations on what to do outside of Copenhagen before I give my own serious thought about it - either in Denmark or outside. Can figure out what to do with extra days and I'll be on my own for them - was thinking Leipzeig as never been, or Helsinki potentially. Not sure what's cost nor time effective.

People negging my post? I spat 100% truth! You lot are chickens! Seriously shocked how heads on here are shook. Not only did I go in a pyramid on Christmas day, but I went in 2!

Rippy, Helsinki is a nice city, pretty small though! People are nice and clothes shopping is very cheap.
