Just being nosey what has anyone got booked or planned for the year?
Perhaps planning to make a change and go somewhere you've always wanted to go and haven't deemed worthy of giving up gaming for a week?

I have about 5 rough ideas as to where to go this year:
tenerife for 5(+-2) days crashing at my mates place who stayed out there from last year

ibiza - want to go for 3 weeks to get away from home, will probably go in summer depending on cash and other variables

october-fest for a few days then to travel on the trains up through europe with a few mates for the rest of the week trying to remain as drunk as possible for the duration of the journey

scotland/glasgow for a weekend skiing with archan/glenn grey if anyone remembers him

if I managed to end up seeing a certain girl would be nice to take her skiing or on a sunny holiday for a week



Out of all those I want to do atleast 2, but what about everyone else - bound to be going somewhere exciting

At the end of the March I'm going to Amsterdam just for an extended weekend thursday-sunday with few friends of mine.

On summer vacation (4 weeks on July) I'm planning an Europe trip something like this:

First I take a bus from Turku to Helsinki airport and from Helsinki a flight to London.
I probably stay only one night in London depending on the flight schedule, and the next day I'll take a train from London to Scotland, Edinburg.
In Scotland I plan to go to trekking to the Highlands, see the actual Skara Brae, some other neolithic/ancient islands and settlements, and of course I would be dumb to miss the local whiskey distilleries which I definitely need to go check out.
After that I probably take a train or a flight (depending how long I stay in Scotland) to the west coast of Ireland and from there a ferry to the Skellig Michael.

For the London-Scotland-Ireland trip I've scheduled about 2 weeks. And after that I take a flight to the Southern Europe – Slovenia or Croatia where I'd love to go kayaking to some mountain/river areas and from there easy, relaxed travelling with shady hostels and pubs along the way with train Slovenia -> Hungary -> Slovakia -> Poland and from Gdansk (North of Poland) I plan to fly back to Turku.

23.02 - 02.03.13 I'll be in Austria, skiing. This summer(after I sent my little Simmo to military), I'd like to go trippin' Europe on a motorcycle. At the moment I've got Slovenia, Croatia, Bulgaria etc in mind..cheaper places, good weather :)
