    Sydney is one of the most expensive cities in the world, property akin to London which is why you find 4 bed houses with about 30 people living there. Great place to party though and if you can sAve enough cash to do south east Asia en route home.
    I Semi regret not doing Goa in the early 90's, 3 of use wanted to go for 2 months, 3 of us didn't, so we tossed a coin and ended up in Malta for 3 weeks

    We make a lot of money of T5 that need sorting .
    I wanted an old VW , but something that wouldn't spend it life on the back of a AA truck .
    I have done Scotland twice , France once and North Wales load of times ...

    My uncle has an original German Karmann beetle and a VW Camper van, both of which must be around 50 years old and which he’s meticulously restored and maintained. He’s owned the beetle for 35+ years. Both still regularly driven on the weekend. Don’t think he’d ever sell but must be worth a few bob between them.

    They will be worth plenty . Great investment old cars at the moment.

    I love the old campers but hey arent the best to drive , seem to always be on the back of the AA truck.
    I wanted and oldish vw but one reliable enough for long journeys that can at least keep up with the traffic.

    That’s quite impressive. I think of myself as reasonably well travelled but just totted-up and reckon I’ve visited 18 European countries. Which is actually less than half of them.

    I'm not sure that it's impressive, as such. I'm just fascinated by travel (and I don't mean package holidays, five star hotels and cruises), other cultures, geography and languages etc. I think I have been to about 65 countries but the number is irrelevant as it's simply a passion.

    Goa was a bit shit really compared to the other places I went ( gokarna - goa 40 yrs ago, Hampi, rishikesh) but it is what it is, the parties are funny, Indians can’t hold their drink at all so you see some in a right state while the foreigners aren’t drinking anyway.
    A week in Goa is enough, it’s way more expensive than other places. Me and a mate got a taxi one day, 6 hr trip down the coast from Goa for a tenner between us….imagine that anywhere else?

    Maybe 'country hunters' and 'Vloggers' have different objectives to yours truly
