If you could take a month off alone, away from work and family, with approximately £10,000 to spend, what would you do?

Travel

Whatif2020 · 06/09/2019 16:25

Thanks BackforGood. My question assumed travel, but what and where?

Lots of city breaks across Europe

I'd spend a month in Japan or New Zealand.

Japan hunts whales
Thailand, Vietnam and India have horrendous animal rights records
Myanmar has horrendous human rights records
India and Pakistan are virtually at war with each other over Kashmir
Hong Kong is still up in arms
It's hurricane season heading West

Good luck finding anywhere, OP.

Travel South America for a month

New Zealand. I would happily spend a month in Norway. Or maybe Antartica... but I'm not sure I could do that on £10k.

FrenchFancie · 06/09/2019 19:24

I would do Jordan and Israel. Both relatively safe and amazing sights.

Or new zealand

Gingernaut - I think she's looking for ideas for a fab trip rather that pessimistic thoughts.

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 06/09/2019 19:47

Would everyone travel?

I wouldn’t, I wonder if I’m unusual?

lilypips · 06/09/2019 19:56

Would everyone travel?

I wouldn't.

I was a bit surprised when OP said to someone upthread that the question assumed travel. It doesn't to me, I suppose I'm not a traveller so just didn't see it.

Brazil. Huge country. Lots to see. Coming into summer soon.
