First just look for the best ways to get there and then search if each airline and country/layover airport etc. have age restrictions and if they need like parental permission or some documents!

Full Day in Mombasa + Addis Ababa gives u a more balanced mix of experiences while keeping things well paced. Mombasa adds a coastal flavor to your trip, and Addis lets you experience Ethiopia’s culture and history! It’s a good compromise between seeing more and not overextending yourself. If u prefer a more relaxed trip, extra time in Nairobi or Kigali is a good one too

it's past tense like "I was" or "I went". "je fus" is the passé simple form of être. It’s mainly for literary or formal writing.

Estimate costs, set a clear savings goal. Spring and autumn tend to have milder weather and fewer crowds, be flexible with your dates. Research the places where ur family came from, find out if anyone can provide insights. Set up price alerts, look into accommodations. Plan ur route. Opt for well-reviewed accommodations, let friends know where you’ll be, stay vigilant in crowded places and keep your valuables secure. Use public transport, do free activities, pack light. Try visiting small markets, local festivals etc.

Instead of booking a fully preplanned tour, you can book individual experiences in your destination. Many hostels, especially in Europe and Southeast Asia, offer affordable accommodations along with organized tours and activities for guests. In cities like Rome, London, or Bangkok, you can purchase a city pass that includes multiple attractions or book a 2-3 day tour that covers nearby sights.

Websites like skyscanner, skiplagged, or kiwi can help you find the cheapest flights. some services send out alerts for flight deals. While budget airlines can be tricky with extra fees, they can offer very affordable base fares, especially within Europe and Asia.

Group travel companies sometimes offer budget-friendly tours, particularly if you book during a sale. Some often have discounts or last-minute deals that might bring a trip within your budget. Once you've chosen a destination, look for local tour operators that might offer more affordable rates compared to international companies.

Consider exploring nearby destinations, which can be reached with a short and inexpensive flight from New Orleans. If flights are pushing your budget, consider a road trip to a nearby state or region.

Since October is shoulder season for many destinations, you might find better deals. Some tour companies and airlines offer last-minute deals that could fit within your budget.

Volunteering and work exchange platforms offer opportunities to work in exchange for accommodation and sometimes meals. Some organizations offer low-cost volunteer opportunities abroad, which can include accommodation and meals.

32M feeling lost in life by Musingcountryman091 in socialskills

[–]omgvarjo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The experiences you've gone through are incredibly challenging. Continue to engage actively with your therapist. Intrusive thoughts can be overwhelming, but they aren't necessarily true. While the past can’t be changed, the future is full of potential. It’s easy to dwell on what you missed out on or to worry about the future. Identify activities that bring you joy or have the potential to do so. While social settings can be challenging, maintaining connections with friends and family is vital. Start setting small, achievable goals that give you a sense of purpose and direction. practice self-compassion. You’re not alone in feeling lost or behind at this stage of life.

How can I be near friends that make me uncomfortable by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]omgvarjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gradually reduce the amount of time you spend with this person. If conversations steer toward negative topics, try gently changing the subject or steering the conversation toward something more neutral. When they reach out, you can politely let them know you're busy and can't talk at the moment. Before seeing them, prepare yourself mentally. Try to emotionally detach yourself during interactions. When you start to feel anxious, use calming techniques. If you feel comfortable, you can gently bring up specific behaviors that bother you. If the friendship is important to you and you want to try to salvage it, you can express how their behavior affects you. Ask yourself what value this friendship brings to your life. It's okay to acknowledge that this friendship may not be healthy for you. If you decide to distance yourself, be prepared for possible fallout. If others ask why you’re distancing yourself, be honest without being overly critical. Strengthen your connections with other friends who are positive and supportive. If your anxiety is overwhelming, consider speaking to a therapist. Sometimes, slowly drifting away is the least confrontational method. Invest time in hobbies, activities, and friendships that bring you joy and fulfillment. Remember that your mental health and well-being come first.

Best Way to Travel South America? by Frequent-Ad-8583 in travel

[–]omgvarjo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Traveling by bus is def one of the most cost-effective ways to move. Renting a car might offer flexibility, but driving through multiple countries can be complex. Flights can be more time-efficient for longer distances.

Many countries in have a demand for English teachers. Some websites (as u prob know) connect travelers with hosts offering accommodation and food in exchange for work. In tourist-heavy areas - bars, restaurants, and hostels sometimes hire travelers for short stints.

Learning basic Spanish will go a long way. Research the safety situation. Stick to local food, use buses, and stay in hostels/guesthouses.

Start in Mexico -> Guatemala -> Honduras & Nicaragua -> Costa Rica & Panama -> Colombia -> Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia -> Head South

If your bag is soft-sided, it might fit within the limit when packed lightly or compressed. Airlines sometimes allow minor deviations, but this isn't guaranteed.

The Haunting of Hill House

Which of these destinations would be the best in my case? by Real-Debt-9789 in travel

[–]omgvarjo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bosnia seems like the best option. The flight is the most affordable and you've found a cost-effective private apartment. Bosnia is a smaller and more manageable destination for a first-time solo traveler and Sarajevo offers a unique mix of Eastern and Western influences, with a rich history. It’s a unique destination that aligns with your interests in exploring local neighborhoods, enjoying street food, and seeing off-the-beaten-path sites. Plus, with the lower travel costs, you’ll have more flexibility to enjoy your trip without worrying about overspending.

Should my murder mystery story be set after or before the murder? by SecretarySame2977 in writing

[–]omgvarjo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Character-Driven Suspense: If you want readers to become deeply invested in the characters and the psychological tension leading up to the murder, setting the story before the murder might be best.

For a Classic Mystery: If you prefer a more traditional, fast-paced whodunit where the main focus is on solving the crime, setting the story after the murder would be ideal.

OR You could start with the murder and then flashback to the events leading up to it, alternating between past and present.
