Did some reading on Iceland, and it seems that travelling in a small group would be a good idea.

I'm keen on travelling to Iceland in the month of October or early November - do drop me a note if anyone is keen.

hi billion gates

yes, november would be the best for you as 80% of accommodation in Iceland will get markdown such as hostel, car rental etc. my advise is, travel with 4 friends or you can find traveller in Reykjavik to split car rental and gas thus make the golden circle of Iceland which you won't regret about it. the other tip is, download an apps called it as "be icelandic" which you will get the information of place of interest in Iceland; offline map.

for food: it's better for you to packup own food as sebuku roti like gardenia; the cheapest that you can get is RM13 (bit cheaper than in Norway).

clothing: prepare for winter clothing as now, it's getting colder as winter coming (even though it's spring now)

Yeah I know but I don't prefer winter as it is very cold. I can't stand it. Driving during winter also not convenient

Hi Lowyat members

Looking for travel companion Western Europe (picture as attached) in next month. We can start in either Lisbon, Portugal or Amsterdam. Total budget for transportation (Western Europe only) more or less €300. As place to stay, we can try Couchsurfing (as I have 100 positive references which would be easier which I had 14 of Balkan countries route all for free night except Prishtina, Kosovo)

Anyone would like to join me, looking forward after you. Preferable lightweight backpacker.

I'll be heading to the US in late October to mid November.

If anyone would like to match up flights or backpacking trips, let me know. I've also got elite oneworld frequent flyer status. biggrin.gif

Especially if you'll be around the Texas / Louisiana area.
