We'll make our own road trip. With Blackjack and Hookers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco 3,008 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Wow - part of me always wanted to do a trip like this. I'm sure there are spells in the middle (or the end) when you just crave privacy, but the experience looks fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eco 3,008 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Family got a private beach house for Labor Day here (Sept 4), so we will be heading up the Friday before, and staying there for 5 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I will do this until every single member on the site (apart from a few) are listed in your post) We should book the whole bus and make it the ultimate TF365 road trip 20 seats, 15000£ each... We'd probably even get a discount. Who's loaded and wants to finance this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toinho 2,210 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Sounds like Eco could afford that trip! Doesn’t look appealing to me though. I’ll just meet you guys in Thailand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Pyfish+ 2,773 Posted February 19, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted February 19, 2021 Planning a road trip with the girlfriend to do Scotland's North Coast 500. Going to ideally rent a campervan/motorhome and drive the 500 mile route and stop off at a few places for a couple of nights and either camp or stay in a hotel etc. Can't wait to start properly planning it and obviously saving up! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As in free travel with no restrictions at all? Fairly unlikely. That said, it depends on your destination. It's possible to travel to quite a few countries already at this point, it's just somewhat complicated and often inconvienent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping I could at least travel within Canada this summer. However, it's not so much the virus that scares me, it's getting stuck within a country that does so.

Same here, the thing that I have missed most during this pandemic is travelling as I try and get away 3-4 times a year but I just can't be arsed with it at the moment. Even if I get to another country it'll be an absolute faff getting back again, especially if the restrictions in either country change (which is likely). I've come to the realisation that in 2021 I'll just do some travelling around the UK, taking short breaks here and there as opposed to going on actual holidays. Works quite well that I've got a newborn around the corner so good timing in that respect, perhaps heading back to travelling in 2022.

Mpache 672 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I'm going to wait a few months worth of travel news before I make plans. Maybe I can start planning in July, my best hope is I can go to Europe in October/November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mpache 672 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Some good vaccine news came around for Canadians today, so I'm ready to start planning (but not purchasing) some trips without feeling like it will take a lifetime. In October I am thinking of going to Iceland, Norway and Svalbard (part of Norway). Oslo to Longyearbyen isn't as expensive as I thought it would be, about $250 cheapest.

Moderator Tommy 12,613 Posted March 12, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 12, 2021 I've been to Turkey twice, it's a lovely country. The citizens are one of the most hospitable I've ever been to. But I'd only return there once their dictator is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
