Hi guys.
Just wanted your thoughts.
I'm going to China this Sept-Dec w/ my college semester abroad program. Once it's done, I have Christmas break. Unlike everyone else who is jetting home to the US to spend time with family, I [obviously] want to travel. The current plan is boot it like a maniac down the China coast, trave down Vietnam, skip over to Cambodia and fly out from Bangkok (tentatively).
As usual, I don't have a travel partner, because it IS may and freaking early to plan this, but I just found out I need to make a decision about plane tix next week. Blargh!
Should I go ahead and make a decision to stay in South East Asia regardless of whether I can find a travel partner or not, and without having done any much planning yet? I'm afraid I'll end up alone, and I have yet to attempt any solo travel (that's happening July for the first time) and am kinda nervous about that. ALSO, I know my parents will absolutely freak out if I tell them I'm travelling alone. I can understand why, and I don't really want to cause them grief. Heck, they'll freak out if I tell them I'm travelling at all, alone or not.
But I really really really want to see these places, and I don't want to spend Christmas back on campus as a sad little international student with no one else here, scrounging for food...and I'm probably not going to be back in SEA for the next three years.
What would you do? One week to make a decision seems a little rough for me. :P
If all else fails, I'll probably end up visiting California instead. Heh.
