If you had 10 days to travel solo anywhere in the world

[TravellingSpoon]

Where would you go?

Ex-H has announced he will be taking the DC's away next January for 10 days.

So it got me thinking about what I could do with 10 days and the ability to go anywhere.I was thinking I would do either Cambodia or Malaysia.

Unfortunately I will actually be at work, but a girl can dream!

Well said supercee

@supercee
When you quoted me, you missed out the preceding words “in my opinion”

I don’t think they are “pointless” per se!

Vietnam
Cambodia
Jordan

Fly into Copenhagen, Denmark then travel to Sweden and on to Norway (all by train/bus) and fly home from Bergen (if you enjoy snowy weather as it's January)

Japan - but not in January

Well everyone who posts something on here is their opinion. Including the precise words in my quote changes nothing.

I think for ten days I would go interrailing, or do a road trip down the east coast of America. I wouldn't go anywhere more long haul as I would waste too much time traveling and dealing with jet lag.

I would go to my favourite hotel in Switzerland and sit on the balcony (well wrapped up), read a book and watch the mountains.

The Glacier Express is on my list and I shall do what you say on my day off roaming around!

I agree, Honolulu was very disappointing, but other parts of Hawaii are wonderful.

Lovely how my holidays are deemed pointless as I don't have anyone to share them with.
No one to go with so do I just never leave my home town, never travel and never go abroad?

Not everyone is lucky enough to have people to holiday with.

Vietnam, Cuba or Rio in January.
Canada at a different time if year but cold holiday doesn't appeal!

Solo I’d either interail around Europe or take a boat across Sweden.
I might be persuaded to walk the Camino de Santiago.

My best holidays have been solo! You should give it a try sometime bringringbring!

Anyway, to answer the question, if I had ten days, I'd fly to New York and spend a couple of days there. Then I'd get the train to Chicago and from there take the California Zephyr train all the way to San Francisco. I'm going to do it one day when Trump's out.

Another vote for the railways. I’ve never done it but have wanted to for so long. I’m terrified of flying so DH bought me the seat61 book a few years ago and hopefully I’ll get to explore lots of Europe in the future.

Ooh TheThing that’s another dream of mine. I have it all planned out (though DH thinks it’s mad so I may revoke the invite).

I start in NYC, On the Washington DC, down to Florida, back again and head across to San Francisco and up to Washington. Private roomette on the Amtrack Superliners. Bliss.

I would love to do the Orient Express or Trans-Siberian highway.
I like trains .
Or I'd go to Ireland, never been, always fancied it. West coast probably.

Tel Aviv and Jordan.

New York. No question. I've been wanting to return for ages.

I’d go Lapland on an activity week

Husky’s
Snowmobiling
Ice fishing
Hot tubs in the snow etc
Northern lights tour
Cross country skiing etc

They do adult ones

You can visit me DrWAnker. I’m in the north west by the ocean

Don’t come in January though or you’ll just be thrown a hot water bottle and a cup of tea! No sightseeing.

I like the sound of your route @Thisisthelaststraw. I can spend many happy hours planning which combination of Amtrak trains I'll take round the USA. I'd love to do New York to Miami too.
