Summer 2006, Varanasi, India

Who are we? We carry backpacks and we travel around the world. That simple? Well..yes and no! We are backpackers, backpacking the world. We do travel around the world - we wish we could travel a lot more. However, some of us are fortunate to be on round the world trips lasting many months or even years visiting many countries or maybe bumming around a few countries. Some of us travel for merely weeks at a time needing to return to full time jobs. Many of us are in our late teens, twenties & thirties. Some of us are still backpacking the world and ho, we are older than 40!

Oh I am so frustrated now. I had written a huge entry when my computer crashed and it got deleted!!! So I will try to rewrite it with all my frustration! I am frustrated as I found some super cool, cheap, for independent travelers tours around california. But it turns out that they all start two days before I arrive in California! Grr! I was intending on traveling on my own. But, I have also thought that finding a cheap and intresting tour around some part in california would definately be intresting. I am not intending to go in a bus with 50 retiered people. I have about 7 nights so im trying to figure out where to go and what to do. I wanted to go to LA (mainly for the hollywood stuff) and also Las Vegas. But i dont want to spend too much time traveling around and not seeing things, so I might just stay in one place. I do land in San Fransicso and that is definatively a M U S T. Well who cares, ill let my frustration run away and find something when I arrive at my tortoise hostel :)
I do have to say that part of my routine is to check the sites of vueling, easyjet, ryanair, transavia, smart wings etc. Part of the time is also spend checking the thorntree of lonely planet, and people´s blog of their RTW ticket. Which tends to make me wonder what life would be if i could take 1 year to go and travel around the world with unlimited funds to not have to worry about anything. Would I really like it, or would I be fed up after 2 months? Well, its stupid to be wondering such questions taken into account that this trip is not anywhere near happening.
Well, so due to my day frustrations with my best pal Toshiba I will leave you all till the next entry :)
D O E I !¡!¡!

:o no comments on Toshiba!! Toshiba is great :D must be, I have one :D (lasting for a loooooong time hopefully!)

hmm ur preparations for the trip seems to be just as long as the trip itself :D

yes go to LA or LV (dont think you should go to both, looking at ur scarce time :O ) and what is wrong with travelling with retired ppl? I had to travel for 3 days (!!) with chinese ppl!!! that is terrible :S imagine that :S constantly yelling, eating, complaining etc etc :S (hmm, now u know why i was wearing a hat in the bus, with my earplugs in!)

btw dont worry, u will have that trip of one year with a big pot of gold covering all your travelling expenses! U'll win the lotery im sure :D (call me then :D )
