Where is the best place to go on vacation? Where have you been? How about on a budget? Is there a vacation out there you can go on when you don't have much money to spend?
I have been to San Francisco, California about 4 or so years ago, and I really LOVED it! It was rather a pricey vacation, but I do want to go back there sometime soon! I also want to visit New York City. I have never been there and I have always wanted to go. I would also LOVE to travel overseas, but I know that would be pretty pricey!
I can't wait to hear your responses!

depends on where you are located, jterrock. for me, it is definitely florida as i am in this state. besides, with my 2 kids it is always disney world or universal studios. i do want to change and visit miami sometime (after my kids have grown tired of theme parks). las vegas has also good deals from here and has certainly enough entertainment.

There are indeed many beautiful places in countries around the world. Beautiful cities too. I have been fortunate to travel overseas to some very nice countries. One country I find so nice to go for holidays is Thailand in Southeast Asia. The beaches are so beautiful, so scenic, and the people are always very friendly, courteous, and helpful.

I love travelling and I have visited many different European countries. I especially liked my vacations in Italy, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. I don't have a lot of money to spend on travelling, but it has been possible for me to visit other countries without spending too much. When my husband and I went to Latvia and Lithuania we chose to go by bus instead of flying. We had to spend a lot of hours on the bus, and flying would have been more comfortable, but we saved a lot of money that way. We also chose to stay at hostels instead of hotels. We don't need a lot of luxury, the important thing is that we are able to travel and able to visit other countries.

Well Yosemite is a great vacationg spot and depending on what you are looking for can be pretty cheap too. If your up for camping, they always have first come first serve campgrounds so as long as you get there first thing in the morning there are always camping spaces open. So then, all you really need to spend money on is the gas to get there, the food, camping gear (assuming you don't already have it) and some spending money. They also have resturaunts for decent prices in the villages!
And the veiw there is absolutely beautiful! Ive been going there every other year since I was a little girl so I would definitely recommend it!
If your not into camping however, it would be a little bit more expensive for the lodges but not much. Just made sure to make a reservation a good 4-5 months in advance.
Well I hope this helped. :)

Yeah but they are very cheap. Usually about $20 per night.

You should visit Maine! It's really better during the summer but the scenery is gorgeous and it's called "Vacationland." I lived there up until just recently, and I can't stand it there, but if I wasn't from there I would visit every summer, and I probably will in the future now that I don't live there!

You might be able to visit Mexico quite cheaply or Canada for a bit more money. Staying in locally owned guest houses can be quite cheap. Large cities tend to be quite pricey so visiting towns would be more economical. In the countryside camping be very cheap.
I have traveled around Europe by train. The best cities in Europe I have found are Dubrovnik, Budapest, Prague, Lisbon and Istanbul. I have been to places in Asia like Singapore and Hong Kong. My favorite destinations are Samoa, Australia and New Zealand.
Good luck with future traveling, New York and a few destinations overseas would be great for you to see.

If you are on a budget i dont think new your would be the right choice. I love New Orleans it has a rich culture and it is very affordable. Also mant of the cities in Florida have lots of things to do while on vacation and florida is not too expensive. Vegas is also not too bad if you do not have a gambling problem LOL

I have never been to New Orleans before. I have always wanted to go though! I have heard that it is a beautiful place! I have been to Florida. I had went to Disney World in the past, that was a lot of fun! I don't like Florida as much as California, but it is still a nice place to visit! And Vegas! Always wanted to go. I think I will be going with my mom and some friends for my birthday next year. That should be tons of fun! Thank you for your response! Have a great day!
