Travelling? I'm planning on travelling next summer, from June til September. I can't decide whether I should go for one of the voluntary projects and work in a school or something, or go just on a massive holiday?? Any ideas/experience would be great!!!!
Travelling from New York to Florida what to see? I am organising a family trip this Christmas. We have done the East Coast of USA and were planning Europe but after a brief (week) trip to Philly & NY a couple of weeks ago my children are now keen to go and do the West Coast probably starting in NY going up to Boston and then down to Florida ending in a cruise around the Bahamas. We would be away 3 weeks approx with two travelling and one on the cruise. Is there plenty to see coming down the coast and what do you suggest. Where would be best places to spend a little time already looking at Philly, Washington, where else would be a great experience for 16 and 13 year old? Should we motorhome or being winter (having been in that cold March week) would we be better off driving and stopping in Motels. Drive the east coast and loved it? Kids would like a touch of snowboarding as well where would you recommend a couple of days?

How would I go about travelling the world? How would I go about getting a job travelling the world, you know for a programme or something about world cultures...? Where a tv company pays you to travel and comment and show everybody the world like on Globe Trekker!
How do you begin to start travelling overseas and plan for the trip? This may seem like a weird question, but how do you start travelling overseas? I've been on planes and through airports several times, but I've never been overseas. So, I guess my real question is how do you plan out a trip, reserve your hotel and get around in places where you don't speak the language of the country? Maps, obviously are a big help, and learning a bit of the language.... But what about getting around the airport at the foreign country? Riding taxis? Or ordering food? I really want to travel in the future, but I'm not sure how I should begin.... Thanks! Well, details as to where: I have many different destinations. But, true. I guess I'll need to give some details. Italy, Hawaii (want to take my parents there), Costa Rica, China, Czech, Russia. Those are a few of them. Thanks!
What stol plane would make a good time travelling platform, like back to the future? I want to sketch out a plane fitted with a time travelling console, but I don't know what plane to choose. It has to be strong, reliable, and it has to land almost anywhere. I was thinking something like the v-22 osprey, but that's like millions of dollars. Or maybe a dh beaver. Remember the plane or helicopter needs 88mph to achieve time travel. Just out of curiosity, is war emergency power on a plane just like a nitrous boost on a car?
How much money will she need to go travelling? My sister is planning to go travelling around the world with her mate, (except America). She's planning to go for around 6months, but because she's staying each place for a week, she won't be working while she's travelling. She asked me to ask on here, how much you reckon she would have to save up. What do you reckon?
What is the cheapest way to go travelling around europe? I am going travelling with my girlfriend around Europe for about 9 days in August, I looked on a Eurorail website and the cheapest ticket for 4 countries is still quite expensive. Anyone now a cheaper way, maybe with a discount for 2 people?
Travelling the world. How much money will i need? Well me and a friend would like to travel the world when we're both done with University. We're both from the UK. We want to travel all accross America, Australia, Germany, Africa, Spain, France, China and Japan. We'll probably end up in a couple of other places too! We would take a full year travelling and spend the minimum on food and travel. How much planning and how much money do you think this will cost?
When travelling by boat, can a thai citizen visit countries without first obtaining a visa? My Thai girlfriend and I will be travelling by sailboat (hopefully). While travelling by air and land, we consistently have to obtain visas in advance, which often entails a lot of travel and expense, making much of our time turn into just getting visas. Does anyone know if it is any easier if your "home" is your sailboat and you just want to visit ports and islands?
How fast is our solar system travelling away from the centre of the Universe? Is this known? Also, if the universe is expanding, then the speed of light must be different relative to different parts of the Universe, does this make sense? (Because if we're already travelling at a a high velocity, then light must appear to travel at a lower speed here than it does at the centre of the Universe. Or is this something to do with Einsteins theory of Relativity? If so, can someone explain the most common parts of this theory?) Thanks

Can someone provide some advice on travelling by train from poland to russia? I will probably be travelling from Warsaw to St. Petersburg, and travelling back to Warsaw from Moscow. Or the other way around. I am very confused with the Russian train system, and many websites are warning about the transit visa through Belarus, but don't provide much advice on how to go around Belarus easily! Thank-you.
What country will pay for your health care costs if you get sick when travelling? My parents live in Canada. They were planning on going to Florida for the winter. Recently, my Dad, who has peripheral artery disease had his medication changed. They won't be travelling to the States now or for the next six months since he can't get insurance because of the change of medicine. Is there a country that you can go to and have free health care if something happens. They couldn't pay for anything serious. I know it is probably unfair to burdon another country to pay for his possible health care problems, but I am worried that if they don't get away, my Dad will not do any walking at all, which he needs to do to stay healthy. They live out in the country and it's really not good to walk on the road in the winter. And a gym is 1/2 an hour a way, even if they would go. A treadmill was already tried and unsuccessful. Thanks if you have any help.
Can one experience the physiological effect of travelling at the speed of light with some type of simulation? It has been said that as a person travels faster or more near the speed of light from an idle position they age slower. My question is that it is not th speed at which one travels but moreso the effect that speed has on the brain of the person. What iff there were a way to manipulate "going the speed of light in the brain" without actually travelling that fast? Is this why some people who are ill mentally with mania or some kind of schizoaffective disorder look 15+years younger than they are, because their mind is raceing so fast? That is, would you agree that it is not directly travelling at the speed of light that manipulates an anti-ageing effect but what happens inthe brain.

Travelling from Amsterdam Centraal to Hamburg hbf - Do I need to be there early to check in? Is there a check in and passport control procedure for international trains in mainland europe?

Is passport control done at the departure station like with eurostar or at the border crossing?

Best way to raise some money for travelling? I want to go travelling for about three weeks next summer. I live in the UK and plan to travel around Europe. I plan to stay in hostels and cheap hotels. How much money do you think I'll need to raise for the cost of travelling and how can I raise that money? I'm only 17 and i've got difficulties finding a part time job as all the uni students take them. I also can't ask for it off my parents or family.
How does a clock go slower if it is travelling at high speed? Einstein says that a clock travelling at high speed (near the speed of light) will go slower than a `stationary' clock. It has been demonstrated that a clock returning to earth from an orbiting satellite shows less time than a stationary, earth bound, clock. How come? Velocity is relative. I.e. the earth bound clock is moving at high speed w.r.t. the satellite bound clock, such that the latter could be considered stationary, and the earth bound clock to be moving at high speed. So why doesn't the earth bound clock go slower?
What sites do you recommend to help when planning an around the world travelling? I am planning on taking a year out of work to go travelling around Asia and Australia, What sites and/or advice can you give to me on what to do while im there / what i should not miss out on / how much accomodation / food will cost / where to stay / where to eat....basically anything you can think of so I can plan the best possible year of my life!
How fast is the sun travelling away from the centre of the universe? and is it moving in a straight line? This is assuming the big bang theory is accurate and that the centre of the universe is the site of the alleged big bang. We probably need to know this before we begin time travelling. Isn't the fourth dimension time? We all have a working understanding of time don't we? That's what I'm worried about, what if I travelled back one day but forgot to factor in the motion of the heavenly bodies and re-appeared 24 hours earlier in a point in space that the world or even the solar system was destined to encounter the moment I left.
What is the best way to deal with your money when travelling in Oz? If a person was travelling there for a year on a working holiday visa what is the best way of dealing with it. Would it be a good idea to open a bank account in OZ when you get there then transfer all of your saved money from your UK bank account to the AUS bank account? How easy is it to open a bank account in OZ if you are a UK citizen just travelling there? Anyone else done this and if so how did you deal with the money side of things?

Travelling to the Amazon? I love to travel and explore. I served 4 years in the Marines and only travelled through the USA. After I got out I have done some overseas travelling on my own. I spent 3 weeks travelling Japan in 2005 and a month in Europe in 2006. I am looking to travel to the Amazon Rainforest sometime between July and October of 2008. I have not decided on the exact duration of the trip but I imagine it to be approx 3 weeks. I also dont know which country that I want to start my trip in or if I should travel to ajoining countries that are a part of the Amazon. I dont want to stay in major cities for very long and am obviously trying to spend as least money as possible while staying relatively safe. I am hoping someone has a large amount of experience there, from either living or extensive travel and could give me some advice. Thanks for the help in advance

When travelling 50 lightyears with 99.99% the speed of light - how much older do you get those 50 lightyears? If we could travel with 99.99% the speed of light, and we would travel 50 lightyears with that speed, how many years does one get older? Isn't it so time (and aging) goes slow when travelling at very high speeds? (Or is that ONLY compared with someone on an object of which the rocket skyrocketed? And the one travelling really will age exact 49.995 years and not less?) If so, then if we could reach those very high speeds in the future, then people could 'easily' travel to other habitable planets, gaining only little age! (And even travel back evenly fast, gaining evenly less age? Sounds weird...) If my above assumptions are correct: can someone calculate for me how much someone would age travelling 50 lightyears with 99.99% the speed of light? Maybe 99.99% isn't enough, but maybe we could get to 99.999999%? Anyway, travelling with the exact speed of light or higher, seems ridicilous to me; one would need all the energy in the universe, if E=mc² is correct. (Somewhere above i mentioned 49.995 years. I ment 50.005 years.) Uncl Al, if i understand you correctly, such a traveller would gain only 258 days in age travelling those 50 lightyears? I think Unle Al is the one who gave the best answer. As i just found out: "a constant 1 g acceleration would permit humans to travel as far as light has been able to since the big bang (some 13.7 billion light years) in ONE human lifetime." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation) At least, 4 people (until now) gave a completely wrong answer (about 50 years).

Travelling at speed? You are driving in a car at a constant speed. On your left side is a 'drop off', (The ground is 18-20 inches below the level you are travelling on), and on your right side is a fire engine travelling at the same speed as you. In front of you is a galloping horse, which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it. Behind you is a galloping zebra. Both the horse and zebra are also travelling at the same speed as you. What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation? * Get off the merry-go-round, you're pissed. *

Travelling to distant worlds - overcoming acceleration needed? The human body can withstand around 5g for a sustained period of time. Anything more and after a few seconds/minutes you would pass out and eventually die right? With this in mind, I calculated that in 70 yrs a human could travel roughly 1.21E13 Km. This isn't even a drop in the ocean compared with the size of our galaxy, let alone travelling to another galaxy. My point is: would freezing the human body suffice to allow greater degrees of acceleration in order to be able to travel further? Or would the body still undergo damage at high accelerations? What other alternatives can you think of? Many thanks people & I look forward to hearing your ideas!! Tom.
Travelling to Puerto Rico in September? I will be travelling to San Juan the first week in Sept. We are staying at the Marriott Stellaris Resort. Anyone been there? Is it a large enough resort to keep us occupied for a week or should we try and break up the week staying in another area of the island. Anyone ever stayed at the Marriott Courtyard on Isle Verde? What about the El San Juan Hotel . . .I've heard it's pretty old and run down now. Also . . . do we have to worry about drinking the water etc? And do we need a Visa? Two will be travelling as Canadians. If so . . . how do we get one. Makes me wish we had used a travel agent, but too late, already booked the airline!
Are we travelling at the speed of light? are we not travelling at the speed of light already? light hits us and bounces of and this is how we see things. if this didn't happen then there would be nothing there. so when we see things are they travelling at the speed of light in order to be seen. And if we are moving somewhere are we therefore travelling faster than the speed of light? as time would move backwards at the speed of light is it that time IS moving backwards we just don't realise? and the whole infinite mass thing?, if we are travelling at the speed of light then maybe we are of infinite mass for our size, volume and surface area as an infinite number can be any number????
After travelling to Russia,It has becamethe worst country on my list for racism and rudeness.Do ppl agree???? I am a non white and been to Russia.

When travelling to see the pyramids, from shram, does the coach run everyday, and does it travel at night?
