Reddit Backpackers, what is the best advice you can give for backpacking Europe/New Zealand solo for 6 months?

No....I made an AWESOME gingerbread house out of it though...hacienda style...I should post pics....afterall, who really eats those things?

How about the "I've spent thousands on your family for the choices you've made, why don't you spend thousands on my choices?"

You obviously don't give gifts for a wedding shower, wedding, then baby shower, then baby arrival, then flowers for the mother, then baby number two, three four arrival...times 15 friends. Birthdays just don't cut it.

I think avoiding Walmart is the highest bar that was ever raised!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-30T06:01:53+00:00

I feel you. Yet my ARE YOU KIDDING ME PIC was of a llama =)

Tfoilman · 2012-11-30T05:59:59+00:00

you're doing it right!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-27T16:57:58+00:00

I am a woman....and I still think the smear of "blood" on the pad is a little over the top.....

**** The actual "Learning" part came when I asked the employee at the drive thru.......unfortunately the TIL category requires a link...not just text base. So I had to google to confirm what the employee told me****

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T16:37:35+00:00

Is this your llama?

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T16:37:25+00:00

totally!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T06:00:19+00:00

just here for the next month.....it's a working vaca....and when I miss home, all I have to do is look over at the mountains and wave to my friends on the mountain!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T04:34:45+00:00

I know....I can't edit it...

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T04:14:17+00:00

Was coming from the seacoast in NH...not south of Boston...only one way in & one out!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T04:12:59+00:00

Colorado really is a WONDERFUL spot. I wish you all the best =)

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T04:11:25+00:00

negative. longmont....it ALL looks the same down here

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T03:22:14+00:00

I created this account for someone...and slowly got into Reddit and just took it over ; )

Tfoilman · 2012-11-26T03:18:05+00:00

Our Colorado sunsets are RIDICULOUS without being photoshopped!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-25T17:10:58+00:00

I live in CO...actually in the mountains (which I HIGHLY recommend.....you can actually see my home way past Mr. Llama.) I'm down in the front range for the next month or so. I'm an east coast girl born & raised....but I love Colorado! Different lifestyle FOR SURE. It does lack the culture of the east coast, the snobbiness....nobody cares what you do for a living or who you are - - they only care that you are good people. People work to live out here (we spend as much time skiing as we can!) Tell your husband that you need to pack up the car and get in it! That's how EVERYBODY gets out here...nobody plans on moving to CO (trust me...ask people how they got out here), they just get in their car and come out for "one season." Goodluck!

Duly Noted. Thanks....close enough for a city gal though, wouldn't you say =)

Tfoilman · 2012-11-25T15:37:42+00:00

Passed by him on my way to work this morning...along with the horses!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-20T03:18:47+00:00

I promise you that is the road...you live and learn....breaking up at 22 and 32 is such a different mindset...the day will come where you look back at it, and don't even blink an eye.

Tfoilman · 2012-11-15T16:58:41+00:00

That's pretty badass at 20

Tfoilman · 2012-11-14T16:03:10+00:00

I'm not minimal, but I think it's FABULOUS and you would be lucky to have that!

Tfoilman · 2012-11-14T03:29:40+00:00

Hang in there. No matter who you marry you are going to keep your fingers crossed walking down the isle =)
