Re: YWer Travel for 2008

my earlier france trip has wiped out my funds for a while. i guess for me, if i'm going to go somewhere, it might as well be huge so i don't feel the need to go somewhere all the time. i would like to go back to china next year though.

Re: YWer Travel for 2008

I'll be in Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Taipei at various points. I would like to take a trip to do nature stuff though and hike or mountain bike. Any suggestions around the Western seaboard?

Re: YWer Travel for 2008

I am thinking of going to Bangkok, Thailand. In certain aspects, Bangkok is more modernized than Houston. LOL

I am also considering Japan as destination for 2008 after reading this article, On the cheap in a costly capital. If not then a a week in Europe instead.

SF, NYC, Alaska are more than likely possibilities.

Barring that I don't go to Cyprus in November for work, I'll be going to Thailand at the very end of the year in December. Sure, PM me.

I'm currently in Abu Dhabi until May. When I finally return to California, aside from any small stateside trips, I'm toying with the idea of going to China for a second time around August or a bit later, specifically Guangzhou and possibly Beijing.
