Birthday Trip
 

I am turning 50 next year and would like to do something special for the occasion. I live in Australia, have done the Silk Road overland from Beijing to Istanbul, The Trans-Siberian, Yangzte Gorges, S-E Asia, UK, Paris, Italy. Any ideas anyone? Tend to avoid conventional holidays. Thanks in Advance.

happy Birthday!

Good for research

saexplorers.org/clubhouses/buenosaires oops typo above

Amazing exotic avoid the jungle in Jan Feb too much rain

weather2travel.com Climate Guides nice elsewhere though.

Usually order the used book from amazon.com for $1.80

Lonely Planet used to be good folks but now

charging almost $20 for a kindle download

what a rip off they are now just another for profit driven

commercial site BBC owned just like TripAdvertizer.

Very sad...

Many Thanks qwovadis for your information. Ecuador/Galapagos is on my list of places to travel so will add that to list of possibile destinations. Would love to see a blue footed booby of all things. Thanks for the useful website: weather2travel.com Fingalmoon :)

An Antarctic cruise?
An African safari?
