Of course the US has the added benefit of driving at 16 (which is mental, fucking kids cant drive) but that doesn't really apply to me anymore.
I go to this one gun range in Pennsylvania every winter. They have AK-47s, MP-5s, M-16s, sniper rifles, pistols, shotguns etc.

it's not so much of a law, more of a recommendation.
Drinking age is 19 so youre good. And theres more of us here in Toronto (3). Plus less arrogant hipsters and racism from not speaking FrenchPochsy wrote:
While you're on the East coast of North America you should visit Toronto. Far superior to Montreal (better schools, museums, tourist attractions, bars, clubs, language), although Montreal has better public transportation.

I can't discern the objective of your planned trip? What do you want to see exactly?Kampframmer wrote:

Thanks for those anyway...
As far as UK goes, I was thinking of flying to London and taking a train or something north and then fly to whatever destination i want. If flights from London are really a ton cheaper than from scotland i´ll even consider taking a train back south and visit London a second time (no problem for me, i really like it there) and fly from there, but only if it really saves me money.
And then it's off to the states or maybe aussieland.
Towns, landscapes, nightlife, wildlife, culinary delights, people what?
I wouldn't recommend a road trip in the UK, motorways are motorways, back roads are too slow, you won't really see anything.
Rail would make more sense, I don't know what the deals are these days, if there's a europass.
Aus, if you have some kind of trade then a working holiday might work, min wage is pretty generous.
There are some pretty good gun ranges in the US, barely anything in Aus.
Fuck Israel
I called it a road trip through the UK, but what i eant was just travelling through it, not by car.Dilbert_X wrote:

As for my objective: I want to see the standard touristie shit, maybe enjoy the nightlife a bit (depending on the location) and just experience a whole new location.
Kampf, come to Vienna and you can crash on my pull-out couch. This city rocks.
DC is a great tourist location. Lots of monuments, a shitload of museums and a generally nice city as long as you stay out of the ghetto. I've been there twice this year, the first of which was my first time ever visiting. If I ever have the money, I'd love to get a place near the Verizon Center. It's a great area.Kampframmer wrote:

I have already been to Boston and NYC, but i would love to go again and also see D.C and shit.
You never went there on a school trip? Weird. We did Frost Valley, Boston, Philadelphia and Washington D.C.Poseidon wrote:

haha, thanks for the offer but i don't think i'll be visiting anything in Europe besides the UK.CapnNismo wrote:

2 reasons:
1. I have already been to most places in Europe (not Vienna though)
2. I often go on weekend-long European city trips with Menzo and another mate of ours. I'm pretty sure I'll visit Vienna at least once in my life.
Eco-backpacking in South America...
When I visited Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland, there were a fair amount of college-aged people hiking/walking on the roads, eco-backpacking and all.

Well, you really haven't told anyone what kind of travel you really wanted. Eco-travel is actually a pretty awesome experience for south-east asia.Kampframmer wrote:

Yup. Supposed to be one of the scariest hand bridges in the world. Scary by yourself, but for me, one hand on the rope, the other on my younger son. My older son had no fear at all. Wifey was scared to cross it. Long walk to it, and then a long wait what with all the other people around. Would have liked to have done some fishing in the area though. Beautiful place.FatherTed wrote:

I haven't been very clear i know, but thats mainly because i don't have any plans set in stone.Ilocano wrote:

But just for the record, I'm not one for backpacking, and especially not eco-backpacking. I will admit though, i have no idea what the eco part adds to the already pretty environmentally friendly act of backpacking, but I'm pretty sure that it's not going to make backpacking any more appealing to me.
