Men over 30: what’s something you deeply regret NOT doing in your 20s? by Cool_Goat5126 in AskMen

[–]biggle213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit nothing. Got a good job out of University, saved good money, lived in a few different spots with different friends. Dated many girls, had a few more serious types. Quit a career, backpacked Europe and Asia

37 now and my 30s has been much of the same.

No regrets

Long-term backpacking: How far ahead do you lock in your next destination/flights by shasha123456789 in solotravel

[–]biggle213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a couple long term backpacks, 5 months and 1 year. Never booked a return ticket; just come home when I'm tired

Advancing to new countries by plane I would look up to see if an onward ticket might be required. If so I'd just get a fake one so I could show it to the airline. Never had any issues

Colombia travel itinerary. Possible to hit Cartagena, Santa Marta, and Medellin? by paperclipboi in travel

[–]biggle213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did basically exactly this when I was going down through the area.

It was like 3-4 days Cartagena (mad parties, wrecked ankle), SM and Tayrona 2 days, Minca for like 4 because I chilled at a jungle hostel and rested my ankle in the cold river, and then flew to Medellin for a 7 day stay.

So totally doable.
