Backpacking North Carolina
Backpacking North Carolina

I don't know what to do!!!!?
I am 18, a recent high school graduate..and took a year off before going to college...although I may not go back for a little while.
I've always wanted to travel..especially to Greece/Paris/London/Africa/Ireland.
I want to go EVERYWHERE!
I still live with my parents, obviously...
and we are moving to Wilmington, North Carolina in a couple of months.
When I get down there I am obviously going to get some kind of job, and start saving money.
I don't know whether I should save money to travel, or to get an apartment.
I know it's important to be out on my own, and blah blah blah
but a part of me thinks that I should travel while I have the chance, and still live at home..and do not have to worry about rent..etc.
What do you think?!
Backpack Europe...and a few other places.
or get an apartment.
thanks guys
i think i will travel:)
i will regret it if i don't.
TRAVEL! You will have the time of your life...learn great life skills...hve fantastic memories. You have your whole life ahead of you.
