august travel

thanks to ucla being on the quarter system, i have about 6 weeks from late july to early september with which to do as i please. so naturally i want to travel.

i am now soliciting recommendations for good places to go. already on the list of contenders is india and southeast asia (thailand, laos, malaysia, etc). additional locations as well as comments on these will be much appreciated. also let me know if and where you'll be traveling - maybe we could meet up.

(yes, yes, i know it's august. half the world will be on holiday and places like the ones mentioned will be ridiculously hot. how about limiting comments to things i *don't* know?)

You should go to Costa Rica or somewhere in Africa like Kenya or South Africa. Costa Rica's awesome cause you can go to the beach and hike through all the rainforests and the people are super friendly. August might be a little warm though...And I think it's expensive to get there (but it's cheap once you're there)

Not sure if Kenya's safe right now but South Africa should be and is supposed to be beautiful as well as Botswana. And it's in the Southern hemisphere so maybe the weather will be nice.

Iceland's supposed to be fun too...

You should bike tour in India. I have a book on it, it sounds amazing. Everyone in the countryside is super friendly and its really cheap!
