Hi there,

Im from the US and have been working for 3 years onboard cruise ships. While not working I went traveling. I met a gal from england and we are stationary now for a year until we're off again. Cant wait to get back out there.

Just signed up to Bootsnall, and looking forward to getting deeper into it as I see a lot of great topics.

Cheers!

Hi guys,

I joined the forum a good while ago but being lazy by nature I haven't actually participated at all. So here's an introduction and hoping for better times! I'm Kristiina, a Finnish national, born in Sweden, living in Ireland for the past 7 years, travelling the world whenever possible. Been to about 30 countries so far, hoping to do a few more next year. Highlights this year so far: Hong Kong and Malaysia. I mostly travel back home to Finland several times a year but luckily I work in a place with loads of annual leave available

Hello Everyone!
My name is Sonia Avendano and I am currently a junior in advertising at the University of Illinois in Champaign. In Spring 2010, I will be leaving my beloved Chicago, Il in order to study abroad in Verona, Italy from January-May. I am VERY EXCITED!!!
In Verona, I will be taking painting, italian, italian business, art history and a cooking course. The best part of it all is that I will be going with three best girlfriends of mine. We are are going to be on a tighter bugdet, however, we are planning to travel everywhere! Some of the cities/countries we are planning to go to are: Madrid, Milan, Barcelona, Dublin, Amsterdam, Prague, Munich, Paris, London, Rome, and anywhere else you recommend. I joined this online community mainly to get help/ advice on packing, basic traveling tips, the best places to visit, and the best/cheapest places to stay. Also-I would appreciate any and all recommendations!
Sonia
