    Hitting Europe with the wife for our 1 year anniversary at the end of may. Trip is from 23-30 but really only gonna get 8 actual days in Europe after the travel. Flying into Amsterdam and spending the day there, heading to Rome for 3 days might take a day trip to Pisa somewhere in there, then shooting up to Paris for 3 days, London for a day and a half then back to Amsterdam to catch our flight back out in the morning. I recommend y’all follow @airfarespot on twitter I got the tickets from Atlanta to Amsterdam round trip for $400 a piece. Have to pay attention to the dates that they post but this particular deal was good for the whole month of May which is perfect because our anniversary is the 27th. If anybody has recommendations on must-sees or must-dos outside of the normal colosseum, louvre, Trevi fountain, Eiffel Tower etc., let me know

    Solid advice. My home girl is out in London right now and she’s been telling me to brace for the cold out there because it’s serious. :lol:

    Of those countries I’ve named, which one would you guys recommend spending NYE in? Looking for a pretty chill outing to ring in the new year. A lounge with hookah, drinks, and good music would be dope.

    Not foreign, but went to Moab this weekend. Did the Fiery Furnace hike in Arches National Park and it was one of the coolest things I've ever done.

    Such a shame that 45 is shrinking some National Parks, what a POS

    May take a family trip to Hawaii in August.

    I have a feeling that's going to be expensive.

    ^^^^^It definitely can be. Airfare alone is kind of crazy but you can save with AirBNB unless you just have to be in a hotel. My cousin booked the Disney hotel for next year and it's like $500 a night! That's a total waste imo.

    Uber is used in Brazil? Kind of surprised. I really want to go to Rio. Did you experience any issues down there as far as violence? I shoot photos as a hobby and always feel shook about someone sticking me up. Haha.

    I would think London is a similar experience to something like New York. That's the only spot I have been from your list. London culture wise just seemed really familiar to something I have experienced. I would do Amsterdam for NYE but that is me. Maybe Germany next to that since that would be so unique to spend New Years.

    Good advice. I’m from NY so I know what the NYE experience there is like. Not ruling London out, but that has me wary about holding it as my #1 spot.

    Amsterdam would work because the way it’s depicted makes it seem like a pretty chill place. But I’m going with people who chief a lot, so I know those f’ers are going to want to hit there first. :lol:

    Next week will be my first time visiting Thailand. Me and my boys will be in Bangkok and Chiang Mai from Christmas Eve to New Year's Eve.

    I also spent just Thanksgiving week in Paris and Barcelona. Incredible time as always. Paris is my favorite international city so far

    Dope. I went in the beginning of the year. Be sure to check out Khao San Road in Bangkok. Also I would recommend visiting Phuket/phi phi islands. Domestic flights shouldn't be too expensive.

    ILL be in golden, Colorado next week. I checked the weather and it’s not expecting snow around the area. Any recommendations? I’ll be renting a car so I’m willing to go some distance, nothing too excessive though.
