I've moved back home, gotten UNengaged, gained another 5 pounds, and i really just want to get the hell outta here for a while. Any ideas? Need something cheap and far far away, europe would be nice, but i don't know how to get a good deal. i tried expedia and orbitz and all that, but i don't have $8,000 bucks. grrr, how do i find a hostel or something? cieux bleus, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #9 August 19, 2003 We could have a mini-vacation, rent some movie we both love, crack open a few bottles of wine and get tore-up drunk...have EvilSteve over with us, possibly PilotMike, I bet Jenn would come over too.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites manifestbitch 0 #14 August 19, 2003 Thanks for the info guys! When exactly is the off season for Europe? I don't really care where I actually end up, I think either France or the UK would be best b/c of the whole language thing. i dunno, maybe i could just go over there, get a job waiting tables and stay as long as i want! Don't think skydiveaggieland would appreciate that though, hmmmf. We'll see. Thanks everyone for your help!

It might be other times as well. My X went to Amsterdam in March & got round trip tickets for $300.00/each. The weather was ok....a little rainy at times but fine to wear maybe a t-shirt with a wind breaker. Wasn't touristy at all. We both went to Europe on our big vacation in the middle of June & it was very touristy & the tickets were way more expensive.
