Thinking about taking a 6month to a year trip....

Already back packed through europe (well- Ireland, England,Scotland, Germany, Netherlands)

Already been to both Canada and Mexico (not saying much)

Spent a couple years in Hawaii

Planning a trip to Costa Rica and Central America

Trying to decide some other fun countries to visit- any suggestions? anyone traveled to Australia or New Zealand?

Australia has hot girls and it's summer there. Plus they speak English.

see thing with Australia is that its not super easy to have a long stay there... From what i've researched, you can obviously go vacation but to get a working visa is not as easy a task-

i met some guy the other day who worked at Holiday Inn, Dubai and then went to work at a oil rig in Turkmenistan as a logistics and catering manager. He works 1 month and gets 1 month off.
He says its a awesome place with nice people.

if you're looking to get a job, be sure to look at how easy it is to get a work visa. some are much easier than others.

Uruguay - there's not many tourists, people are friendly and laid-back, and the weather is really nice. Make sure you spend some days in Colonia de Sacramento, it is a great, quiet town on the shores of Rio Plata.

Costa Rica is good too, but a lot more touristy. It's warmer than Uruguay and more people speak some English, so if that's what you're looking for, it's a great place.
