Summer Vacation 2011.

Post by CrimsonNuker »

I know most of you are probably done with you 'X' year in College/University now; so what do you guys have planned for this summer?

I'll be going on a trip with my family down the eastern edge of China; going to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and Macau. It'll be my first time leaving Canada, going to the US, Japan, and China :sohappy:

I'll finaly be free from my apprenticeship the 17th of june, i'dd still have work then, but quite a lot less than now.

I'll probs take one or two weeks off and take a trip somewhere. Sadly enough most of my friends are quite poor xD so i can't really count on them to come along.
If the weather will be like it has been over there lately i won't be complaining though, even home would be fine.

In theory I've had summer vacation for 1 month already since I've had no school since my finals. But instead of relaxing I've studied for entrance exam and when the actual vacation starts I start working for whole summer. That's part of growing up I suppose -.-

I will just relax and eventually go to a camping trip with some friends. I'll travel with my family to Croatia as well for 2 weeks.

What else? Well, I'm gonna build a new and improved orange gun with my friend. Probably gonna make it controlled this time :sohappy:

You're damned lucky to be able to spend your first real Canadian experience in Vancouver, it's the best city in Canada to live in imo, but from what I heard, it's a costly lifestyle :P

If I have any money left after moving to a new apartment in June I'm going on a cruise with some friends. We just took a pretty expensive trip to South Padre for spring break though, so I'm having a hard time justifying another expensive trip so soon...

I've always wanted to go to Norway too...

Just like Key-J. I usually go to Morroco or a solar destination(Cuba,Mexico,etc.) but considering I've already went to Mexico this christmas , I'll be staying home this summer enjoying my first job.

Make monies, party with friends. YAYAYAYAYAYAYA.

I think it will be my first few months when I will actually have a job. Not much fun this summer I suppose. :(

I already finished year 2 of university, if I don't start working soon I will end the uni being a fail accountant, not knowing to do shit. They teach us theoretical stuff in uni, but no practice.

I'm doing another trip across several states in the US.

I live in Holland (always have) but my dad moved to the us (parents divorced at young age). My dad opened his own yoga school now in Cali which was his dream since forever. They were tied to a visa connected to my stepmom's work though in MN, so now he has his workvisa they're free basically. Not sure exactly, something to do with a green card or whatever. But yeah they're in cali now and my dad just finished his studio etc.

Last year, we went from MN (Minneapolis) south into Iowa, through the centre and west into Nebraska, West through to Colorado and stopped at the Rocky's (yes, in 1 day lol). We stayed there for several days (I SAW A BURR! And some other stuff, we almost had a collision with an Elk actually lol). Then headed towards Utah where we basically visited most of the NP's (Did the Delicate Arch hike at Arches NP, anyone done that?) Then down into Arizona (Monument valley, Grand canyon, Glen, Zion, etc on the way). We did a hike there forgot what it was called but it was Farking amazing. Then we headed northwest straight into Vegas where I was 20 years old so couldnt play cards (I make money with poker these days so you can imagine how painful that was lol). Anyway, the strip was amazing. Then we headed west through the desert into Cali and spent another week there. All these in 3 weeks in a nice 4x4 Jeep with my dad and his son (my little brother, hes 13) :D

The Delicate Arch hike was tough man omg, I hadn't done any form of sports in like a year or 2 and I was exhausted after the hike lmao.

We also stopped during all of Holland's football matches in the world cup and spent those days in the areas/hotels/motels watching it on Wifi.

We basically spent most nights on campgrounds etc. Saw so much wildlife it was amazing.

Anyway, this year we're doing another trip, we haven't decided yet but we're either going up north in Canada to colder regions and river areas etc, or more south and then along the east coast to see Urban life there :D Hopefully FL too, I'd love to see miami etc. That is kinda of why I made this post, can anyone suggest something nice? My passion goes out for wildlife and views really, but urban life would be very cool too along eastcoast.

Have been saving a while and going with a group of 10 on a bit of a eurofest.
Starting in Ibiza for a week at the start of June, then coming back home and going off to Japfest with the local supra community. Then off to Defcon in holland around mid June. Back home for work again then off again in August for Wacken.

Might also fit in a quick trip to Sweden to visit a friend and see a dubstep/electro festival sometime too, but only a possibility at the moment. Really looking forward to this summer, been a tough year of work.

The only thing I have planned so far this summer, is my brother's wedding in July. Which is in Scotland :) But mainly I will be working.... Boo! But might take some time off, and do something, even if it is in this country.
