Default 3weeks & £700 Where to go outsite of Europe

I have done lots a trips to various parts of Europe and this year im finally gonna break out of my continent.

The problem is limited funds and time are really restraining me!

I thought of going to India and Nepal but I think the vaccination costs along with £400 flights will tip it over the edge of my budget.

My other thoughts were Morocco and Algeria or Egypt and Jordan.
My boyfriend loves the mountains and I love stunning architecture- does anyone have any suggestions for possible locations for our mini adventure this sept?


Any comments are welcome as I love researching all the possibilities.
Thanks all,
Jenny

Nepal sounds amazing. The flight may be expensive but the traveling should be cheap. I have seen some of Atchoum's ridiculously beautiful photos of Bhutan which would also be great (but I think that would be pricier)

not really backpacking, but have a look at Gambia, in west africa. thomas cook do pretty cheap packages there. we paid under 400 quid for 2 weeks b+b in march last year. We had an amazing time, the people were really really nice. and your not far from senegal if you want to go there for a day or 2. we didnt make it there though unfortunately.

its not very mountainous though...and not much in the way of architecture...but definitely recommended

Whats the length of your vacation....If its for a week or so...India or Nepal should suit you fine....Again, if it is more than that then you can opt for Egypt...You and your boy friend will have a perfect environment for yourself...
