"I have a billion days holiday that I need to take fairly soon (I'm the sad fucker that never takes any). Any good ideas for a cheap (I'm saving for house!) holidays alone? I've back packed alone but I can't be arsed with something like that - I just want to either relax or do something cool without having to meet people! Anyone been in a similar position and found something awesome? " Just done 3 years alone - 50 odd countries across 6 continents. Alaska or anywhere in the US they will welcome a lone Brit with open arms. Easier when they speak the language too. Inbox me if you're wanting to sound ideas. I did Africa alone but I'd only recommend Namibia - no people and you can be at one with nature! | |||

"Thanks all for the input - gives me something to chew on. There's loads I'd like to go and do but it's more of a case of what is viable at the moment. I just looked on Icelolly and didn't realise how cheap an off-peak all inclusive holiday could be - I spend more than that on a night out! Not sure if I fancy something like that though. Need to have a bit more of a think." I would recommend finding a cheap return flight to anywhere you fancy going and when you get there use the agents at that airport to find accommodation...they usually deal with the hotels direct which works out so much cheaper than prebooking in the uk.. | |||

"I'm always off somewhere alone and find focusing on what I need from the break first and foremost is ideal. Then matching those needs with a comprehensive list of affordable places helps narrow it. Lisbon is fairly close, small, adjacent to the coast and really interesting. It's affordable too. Warmer than the UK and generally better weather. Berlin's much bigger, closer and can be affordable - weather varies depending upon when you're going. Amsterdam can be very relaxing and low cost. For unwinding with interests aplenty, consider a range of regions and cities in southern Spain. Can hire a villa etc, so not needing to mingle or stand out, compared to a hotel stay. Cyprus weather is great all year and airlines like Monarch fly from regional airports. Could explore and move around a bit - hotels and apartments etc. Guernsey is quiet, relaxing and very close - I've always loved it there, compared to Jersey, its busier neighbour. I'll always take a break in the north east, Newcastle, Durham etc. You can easily scoot up to Edinburgh, which is awesome, any time of year. " Guernsey really is something special. It costs a couple of quid for a bus ticket round the island and there are so many sights to see. Many of them would be owned here and cost to get in but there they are free. Stay in St Peters Port. Good views, good food. Easy to get to. | |||
"Get a tent, go to the train station and jump on the 1st train you see and got of at the final destination x" An all line rail rover ticket offers excellent value and you can see the whole of Great Britain in a week or two. Don't worry, they won't talk to you! | |||

my holidays are still based around humping stuff on and off stages in muddy fields..and you get the best seat in the house you can also volunteer for national trust and such like for the week too!

"I know have accrued a months holiday I need to take! How long does it take to get a new passport?" You can do it same day if you have to, and can get to one of the passport centres. I always end up having to do that because I leave it too late. A couple of weeks if you do it the postal way I think? | |||
"I know have accrued a months holiday I need to take! How long does it take to get a new passport?" If you apply now it won't take long. My niece got hers in a week. | |||

"Nice, much better than I expected. There is apparently (and unsurprisingly) a passport office in London to so it shouldn't be much of a problem if I totally fuck up. Thanks." Plus, day out in London. Bonus! | |||

"Nice, much better than I expected. There is apparently (and unsurprisingly) a passport office in London to so it shouldn't be much of a problem if I totally fuck up. Thanks." You know there are people in London and you might have to interact with them, don't you?  | |||

"I'm doing just this later in the year, but I'm going to Swingfields....." You are, perhaps, the only thing I can think of that might make camping appealing. | |||
"I'm trying to talk my boss into giving me the whole lot off at once so I can maybe bugger off to Thailand for 3-4 weeks, but I just looked at my work diary and have things to do until 20th May. "Tell her/him that it's not possible to use it all up and get everything done. What's their priority? Also remind them that you will need to be paid for the leave you can't take if the work can't be shifted. | |||
