    Far East Travelling

    Reet, Lately I've been debating (with myself) whether to go travelling for a few month or not next summer (09).

    Having assesed the situation over & over I've decided that am gonna go for it as I hate my job & don't have anything tieing me down at the minute.

    Was just wondering if anyone has done a bit of travelling in their time & what would you advise anyone to do or places to go & see whilst being out there?

    My plan at the minute is to head out to Thailand & Japan then possibly down to Australia then to stay with family in New Zealand for a bit.

    Everything is at the preliminary stages at the minute but would like to try & start to get some sort of plan organized.

    Any feedback/advice would be great!

    Carson :)

    I spent a month backpacking in Indonesia about 10 years ago. Would definitely recommend it, but it would probably be a good idea to check on the political situation there before seriously considering it.
