My first post...just found the site today at work while I was day dreaming of a trip and really appreciate all the information I'm getting.

Anyways I'm looking at heading out on approx a month long backpacking trip. Probably just by myself or one other. I've traveled alone before to several cities in the states, and enjoy the solo missio but have never been out of the continent (I live in western Canada).

The thing is I dont know how interested I am in the whole europe thing, especially when I can stretch my dollar so much futher in so many better climates. So I was wondering if some people could help out with some trip ideas that would interest a 23 yr old guy thats into the beaches, hostels, meeting people my age, and quite a bit of drinking. Oh....and I'm also a little unsure about some of the best times to hit areas....if someone could help on that????

Would really appreciate a hand, by stories or itinerary ideas etc. Thanks kids.

Peace.
