Hey,

I thought I would give a short introduction of myself in here. I am currently living in the Portland (Oregon Coast) area and hoping to travel as much as possible before I graduate from college. Right now, I am planning on a trip to go to Spain from about May 7th to May 29th (or a little longer). I really only want to hit Spain, but if my partner (or anyone that wants to join on) wants to go anywhere else, then I would be down. The countries that I am most interested right now are the following (no particular order):

- Iceland
- Spain
- Peru
- Morroco
- Egypt
- Japan
- China
- interested in almost everything but those are my tops for now

Well, I am down to talk travel, but I do not have a lot of experience. I have been to BC area multiple times and Mexico once. Since I am so eager on travelling, I am hoping that I can glean as much info from this forum as possible. I'm assuming I'll meet alot of you along the way. Thanks.

Spain is amazing. It's a must see. If your partner gets "bored" (don't know how you could! ), Portugal and Morrocco are a short bus/train ride away.

Iceland is also amazing. Really really neat country.

Edit to add: Welcome!!
