I’m 18 and planning on going on a trip next January time, but I’m getting completely overwhelmed about where to start. I’m not what you would call a ‘planner’ so I’m having a really hard time trying to get everything sorted. There are soooooo many places I want to see (hot, cold, jungles, rivers, mountains – I want to see it all!) but despite having no real time limit I only have about £5,000 so need to be realistic. If you could help me find some good places for a first time traveller I would realy appreciate it. Thanks, Alexandra
