Where should the wife and I go on our vacation?

[CFH]

All right motherfuckers, I need some help here.

The wife, God bless her, and I are finally financially able to take a decent goddamn vacation. We want to go some place that is somewhat exotic, cheap, and at least somewhat safe. We're hoping to go for three weeks, so we will probably be limited to one or two countries at best. We're also pretty much going to backpack around, so we don't need extravagent lodgings or anything like that.

We've been thinking about Southern Asian (Bangladesh, India, South China etc.) or South-Eastern Asia (ie. Thailand, Vietnam etc.) or Central America (Nicaragua, Costa Rica etc.), but we're open to going anywhere.

Any of you jerks have any suggestions?

India? Peculiar choice. Sounds like a Master kind of thing. In terms of natural beauty, I would suggest Thailand. But watch out for jungles, cars and leeches. I've heard the beaches are great, but I was too busy venturing north.

How so? It's renowned as a wonderful place and it's one of the most popular backpacking countries in the world.

I wouldn't mind going to Vancouver at some point.

Over the last couple of months you've become the most asinine, glib member of this site. It's great.

Besides, I said somewhere cheap. Vancouver is fucking brutally expensive.

Being absolutely of no help to anyone in question threads is my new calling card. If it was something serious like "should I just end it all" I'd cool click the thread starter for morale reasons and then see what's happening on the boxing board.

Everyone needs a schtick. I'm not sure what mine is... I think I'm just an asshole.

Has anyone been to Turkey?

Backpacking is not something that I particularly like. I hate students and I hate tourists and furthermore I hate young hippies looking for mystical enlightenment. Not my cup of tea at all. It seems like a place that would irritate me quite quickly.

I would also suggest somewhere like Hong Kong, but India just sounds like a place to induce severe bowel strain.

Hong KOng would be cool, but I suspect it would be very expensive.

I'm not really fond of people either, but I love seeing new places and India seems like a very unique environment.

Doesn't hating students make being a teacher difficult?

I really wanna do South Asia at some point. Before deciding to go Jamaica back in 2008 I was giving Sri Lanka a hard look. I think I wa actually looking at one of those 'twin centre' package deals, a week in Touring round Sri Lanka then a week in I think Mauritius or something like that... Sri Lanka looks beautiful and the whole Budhist thing appeals to me.

I watched a documentary on Buddhism a couple of days ago and I was blown away by it all... Some of the temples, statues etc are just awesome.

May I suggest Cambodia? Angkor Wat is amazing to visit and look at.
