Well, seems like I've stumbled upon a nice little place!
I feel the need to introduce myself, I hope I have enough time to post my questions with work n school n all... I don't know about contributing though, I have no experience traveling at all.
I'm a 19 year old single guy who lives in Ontario, Canada. Going to school for IT atm and I'm almost done my course. The reasons I'm posting here is because I want to meet new people and I need to be informed about whatever I need to know before I leave on my trip across Europe! Final destination? Japan for sure
I've been wanting to go to Japan for a while now, I feel that their culture is something that should be experienced. I enjoy lots of Anime (who would have thought? ) and a ton of music. The reason I'm leaving Canada for a bit? Well it's just that, I've never left my country at all, there's just something that tells me that there's a lot more to the world than where I live. I guess it's some sort of quest to find out who I really am and what I want to do.
Anyways, enough of the blabbering. Again, I hope I can meet a few new faces with my time here. I've been one of those guys who only reads the posts for about...2hrs then I was tempted lol.
Nice to meet you all! Cheers
(damm this post reads like one of those lavalife posts or something... That wasn't my intention! :P)
