I made a thread about this a little while ago, you have all ruined my travel plans in terrible ways because now it is like 10x the scope it was in the beginning.
The things I will have to do for this money.
Basically, I will be doing a thorough sweep of Europe, a total loop.
It is from the 27th of May, through to the 10th of August. Yes that is an absurd number of days. It may get cut down quite a bit. Maybe not
This is gonna get pretty hot and heavy (and sweaty), I feel I should introduce myself:
I'm from Australia, Canberra to be exact. Last year of University, and have never left my country before. Been posting here a little while and did that whole AUSPAX thing and left with no outstanding death threats or warrants of any kind. A great success.
I will have essentially 2 parts to this trip; a pre-emptive in
England for 7 days or so
Essentially, who is in england, where are you in england, would you like to show me things to do near your place of residence. And another thing, which is very heavy handed of me and not something I will expect of you, but offer a couch or something similar (a hammock in the back yard, a patch of nice grass and a tent(not joking)). My england plans so far are basically as follows;
land in london on the 27th/28th, something something get to Paris on the 11th somehow. I have room to move, and england isn't very big
PART TWO: EUROPE
This is the big feller, I start around the 10th of june in paris, and I am doing a massive loop of europe
I want to hit up Belgium for about a week, Milan for the same, everything in between is basically a free for all. Where are you dudes at, what can I do in where you are at? How long should I stay in these places? would you like to do those things with me?
do you have a couch? couches are nice and will generally follow the england principal. I will rent your damn couch for $10 a night if that works, it would be so totally swell of you.
Basically where are you guys who want to hang out? put it in coloured text as they may stop me from skipping you accidentally, how long should I spend in certain places?
This OP would be missing lots I'm sure; I haven't much time to do these things because UNI WORK.
PM me if this is something you would like to be involved in in any way shape or form.

brussels especially
i want you to keep a running count but i also want you to legitimately lose count
And Disney World is nowhere in sight.
The idea that the Australian accent can be taken as a good thing is just bizarre to me
berlin is awesome but they hide all the good stuff.
but that wont mean anything when you rock up in a dirty pair of dunlop volleys and ask them haayezguern?
I have done Busabout.
Did you want me to talk about Busabout?
Please do, anything would be helpful really
American women, at least, think it's really keen from what I understand.
Though part of that is that I think Aussie accents on ladies is pretty hot, so I don't know if the opposite holds true for sure.
nope its terrible here
Steam
I was actually really looking forward to NOT going to amsterdam
oh well
Back in 1800 it probably came close.
Spoiler for huge
Lord of the Rings was filmed in middle earth
Absolutely!
Sorry to say I have very very little information about when I'll be where, but I'll take note of who is where and up for something and start putting up plans when I can.
I'll have some fairly solid preliminary stuff mid-late may
That one is pretty easy actually. Go to Wales instead and figure out how to say those names.
The first two weeks of august would work best for me since I'm off from work then.
That's what you get for being so xenophobic and anti-Europe!
It's not like ALL of us are okay yeah, you got a point.
Hang out with those guys Blunter - Jarppi is cool.
seriously dude that trip looks like so much fun
oh also... try not to spend all 7 days in London if you can help it... there are heaps of neat places not too far away that make great day trips and stuff
if you can, go to Stratford-upon-Avon... I LOVED it when I went there (oh god it was 11 years ago)
Have no fear Viv
london was nothing more than a landing point, though now that my cousin has disappeared I don't really have any direction as far as England goes
it still is weird you call me conway, that name follows me everywhere
booo
Stratford-Upon-Avon was kinda boring for me
I liked Bath and Stonehenge a lot more!
My favorite was to Dover and Canterbury.
Seeing the Roman Baths and shit was still cool, though. And Bath is a beautiful city!
