Hello int, sorry if this appears as a bait thread I swear it isn't. I never post here and I assumed this would be the place for this, I'm just an idiot that can't make up his mind.
tl;dr me and my girlfriend want to travel internationally at least once before we are bogged down with kids, and I can't really decide where.
List of considered places, and my current thoughts on them (I'm well open to change my mind, please enlighten me if I'm wrong)
Cost is an issue obviously, I'm not dirt poor but I'm not living in a damn mansion, id like to keep the trip total under 6-10k if possible.
I don't mind sleeping in a small room or whatever, but I avoid hostels or anything without a private room like the plague, If I was by myself I'd be ok with it, but with my girl? 100% no.
>Germany / Austria
Pros:
The landscape is beautiful looking, and castles are fucking neat.
Cons:
Merkel and everything that goes along with her
>Ireland
Pros:
The villages, everything about the place just looks like id be a nice visit
Cons:
my fucking girlfriend wants to bring her fucking mom if we go to Ireland, so it better be a breathtaking place to outweigh that
>Northern Scotland
Pros:
The cliffs and such look utterly fantastic
Cons:
From what I understand can be fairly expensive.
>Australia
I honestly don't know, nothing sticks out as worth the money
>Japan
Pro:
Borderline alien culture, that fact is very neat to me and itll feel like a completely foreign place, a feeling I doubt id get in Europe.
cons:
fucking weeb shit.
By no means am I limited to above, those are just my current thoughts on places.
Help a retard out int
