Hawaii, Peru or Thailand? Help me decide.
I'm trying to decide where to spend the next few years of my life. I intend on backpacking with a bike and trailer and living the simple life for awhile. I just need to.
I have never been to any of these places. Just heard stories. Can you tell me some stories of what some of these places are like? I am a big-time fruit eater. But I do love my tender greens as well.
Where would you guys go, of the three choices, and why?

Out of the three, I've been drawn to Hawaii the longest. Partially because it wouldn't feel as isolated as the other two options. I know a lot of people who have been. But Peru or Thailand seems like they would be cheaper, overall, and provide a greater "worldly" experience. I have heard wonderful things about Peru as well. Thailand is a recent fascination, because of the durian.

I also like Hawaii because of all the different climates available to explore. Hawaii is so young and fresh, geographically. I like volcanos.

Samantha - what island did you go to?
Did it seem like it was easy to just backpack around for awhile in the islands?

I wasn't able to backpack while there but I do want to do it in the future. I visited The Big Island, Maui and O'ahu. I enjoyed the Big Island the most by far. It has an active volcano, a very diverse terrain, and very perfect weather, imo. I actually saw a lot of people camping on random beaches and I heard its a good island for living via tent for a while. So I think it could be done. Maui and O'ahu were a bit too touristy for me, but still nice to see at least once.

Well, I think it would be a great experience! I hope I can go back there within a year or two.
