I've never been on this board before today, nor am I a seasoned traveller like the rest of you, but I figured I'd kill some time by taking part.
Pretty much every bit of travel I did was when I was 18 or younger (I'm 21) with my family, and since my mums British and my dads part Berber Algerian, we only ever travelled around the UK and the Maghreb (+ Turkey since it's a basic Brit spot). I sound like a spoiled cunt saying it, but most of the time I just wanted to go home because I really don't care about my heritage, and my parents were miserable fucks anyway so it's not like they made the trips easy to enjoy.
That being said, I've always wanted to do a tour of the 13 colonies, but just because it's a simple categorisation), and I worked part-time all through high school and university as well as doing internships/a placement year, so I can afford to do it when I graduate next summer without going into crippling debt or being faced with permanent unemployment like most Londoners these days. I'm not exclusively into Revolution history, but the colonies are a include all the states I've always wanted to visit, be it due to their history or just aesthetic/baseless personal passion. I know that I'm missing regions that are part of newer states rather than the original colonies, but it is what it is. American footballs my main sport so it's a shame that I won't be able to watch any NFL/CFB games, but I'll catch an NBA/MLB game every time I'm in a city with a team since I'm a casual fan of those sports too. Don't have any friends so I'll be going solo, and I doubt I'll be making any when I'm there so I'm not too worried about the social aspect of tourism. Pretty much the only thing I'm undecided on is whether to start in the North or South.
I only want to "visit" Australia because I'm hoping to move there a couple years down the line. Sorry for the blogpost, but typing this out made me realise just how much of a bore I am, so really I'm the victim here
