Ok TPunkers!

Here is the scoop....

about 2 months ago I was planning a trip to Europe, and because of a change of plans for my girlfriend had to cancel it TEMPORARILY :D

Im going to Brazil late February for Carnival and to find a house as I am heading back in April to stay for 6 months to a year.

When I get back from the first trip (early March) Im strongly considering heading over to Europe for a week or two and taking advantage of the off-season flight prices. British Air is showing a round trip for 298.00 USD in mid March, I figure why the hell not? thats from Frisco but it seemed the same in most gateway cities. Anyway, Im just curious to see if anyone else is interested, or will be over there in mid to late March, I would love to hook up with some TPunkers for a couple brews and some laughs, so let me know whatcha plans are

Nothing like creating a little more debt to go hang out with some friends for a couple nice cold rounds

My friend and I are headed from Seatac to Amsterdam march 19th til the 31st (End of her spring break). We'll end there too or maybe skip Amsterdam and catch our connecting flight in Copenhagen (SAS) if possible. It would be cool to meet up with other backpackers this trip over. Went with family last time who weren't interested in the cheap.

Thoght about it quite a few times, been invited to stay in several camps but just can't seem to get the money, time and need to spend a week in the desert with a huge group of chemically altered strangers in the same room.

I prefer Mt Rainier NP or obviously Europe.

Hey, Boudiccae, welcome to the Boards! You're not in the habit of killing Romans like your historical namesake, are you? Just wanted to know if I should steer clear...
