Traveling

Hey guys!

I got 6 grand from my G parents when I turned 18 two years ago which of course I want to use on my truck, but they intended on me using it for traveling. I had nobody to go with so I waited for my brother to turn 18 which just recently happened so we are thinking of places to go. I have been to Costa Rica which we are considering going to visit again. However my Grandparents and my dad were born in Germany so we were also thinking of going there and traveling all around. I have family I have never met there and maybe it would be cool to do that. But Also we want to go somewhere in paradise like Tahiti or on a cruise to Jamaica or something. But we want to go out of the country for obvious reasons being under 21...

Anyone got any ideas or suggestions?

Cancun and Cozemel are OK, and yes Costa Rica is nice. I was down there in November around Playa Azul.

Not sure where that is, but it is awesome there. I have two uncles that live in Nosara.

Thanks for the input buck, this is another thing on my mind. And no I am not working, I have applied to about 30 places total and NOBODY is hiring. I am yet another poor college student lol.

I thought as much, I would in all reality take a nice cheap vacation right here in the ole USA, we have plenty of warm wonderful places right here in our own neighborhood. I'd spend 1500 and save the rest to be somewhat comfy until things begin to pan otu for you. I know i sound like the old **** but this is a ****edup time right now and if you can stash a bit now and hang on until the ride ends you can then take any vacation you want.

I agree with buckdropper too.
However, Germany is a beautiful country as well as the countries in that region. Stay in school, buy a cd with your money in the safest bank you can find, then when things get better, the extra money you saved up will make your travels that much better. YMMV

Yeah, had the a/c on in my truck today too.

Cruises can be pretty cheap. If you really want to travel I would do that to the Virgin Islands or something and just put the rest away.
