Traveling isn't just about visiting, is about learning, so...
What places should I visit before it is too late?
I know it is never too late but is a fact that being young is much easier leave home for I while, my experience when I first moved London (I'm from Spain and moved for 2 years) was good, but I don't feel London as a place I visited, I kind of see like my second home.
I've been in France, Argentina, Colombia, Holland, UK, etc. but I'm starting to be interested in visiting not so popular places, I mean, not where everyone goes because I think those places will be there later, and also the opportunity to go, but now being young maybe is my only chance to places like India, Tibet, Amazonas, or Rusia.
Don't know why I see it like that but I want to know if you think the same, also what is the best way to travel to where, I mean, I went Paris in summer by coach with a friend, didn't have much money, and slept under the Eiffel Tower on the grass for 1 night and, wasn't luxury, but great experience. Then I went Amsterdam with my girlfriend and spent 2 nights camping not too far from the town, also went by coach.
I know I can't go to India by coach and cannot plan sleeping in the street but, what kind of plan would you recomment to each country you would recommend.
Cheers. =)

Well, of the places that you mentioned, I only can say about Amazonas. On that state is where is localized part of the Amazon Rainforest (Floresta Amazônica). And that's definitely one place that is not going to exist in the future, because people are destroying.
Nowadays, already have fancy hotels on Amazonas, but probably you are not looking for that. After you arrive on Amazonas, you can look for ships that takes you to visit parts of the forest. You can spend one week in these ships, sleeping on hamnocks and eating the typical foods.

Are you from near Amazonas? At this moment, I'm living not too far, I'm from Spain but I'm living in Colombia, quite south and few how on plane, but I don't have a clue where to start from...
That's a good point, maybe that's one of those places will won't have the chance to visit in the future...

Well D,
I see you are new here, welcome. I think its great about your traveling!! Its wonderfull. I am not sure where you should go. Its great you went to Amsterdam. Did you visit any smoking cafe's? I think that would be fun. And camping really gives you a rustic life. I live in the US and am afraid to travel outside the country as I feel I will be trapped and held hostage. 
But I Wish I was more adventurous. One thing my husb and i would love to do if we could would be to travel the country visiting all the music festivals. I also would like to take a long journey by bike. And would do it to raise money for an organization. I think one day I will when my kids grow up. Something of the sort. I always say I would love to live as a Gypsi.

I would recommend visiting Australia, staying in youth hostels and going around it by train or coach. Distances are long so if your time is short you could have a few flights inside Australia. New Zealand is a very beautiful country worth visiting and it is a small country compared to its neighbor. I liked traveling by train there and by bus when there wasn't a train service. To afford traveling it is worth working overseas. When very poor it is worth sleeping in a tent. Try to remember visit cheaper countries until your budget is better like India or the Philippines.

Good one, I didn't think about it. I come from a city which has quite nice beaches so I think what I'm looking for is more knowing the culture and having an experience I would not experiment anywhere else, apart from the beaches and nice cities, nightlife, etc.
Where about would you recommend me to go, what's the city you feel more proud of? Nothing like being guided by someone who lives in there.
=) Cheers
