Dobbie03@Karma_J oh my fucking god, now that's a sandwich.
@Karma_J Here in New Zealand we have a severe shortage of sandwich shops of that calibre.
I'm sorry to hear that.
Here in the US, we have many small restaurants that have been in business for decades all over the nation and they serve AMAZING foods.
When I was in my 20s, some friends and I drove to all lower 48 states and we ate anywhere. That was the best way to sample local favorites.
@Karma_J it makes me sad too, especially as a lover of good food.
That sounds like the coolest trip ever. I would one day love to get over to the US and check out those sort of places and eat my way around the US.
One day, when I win the lottery. 😆
The most expensive cost on your end might be the trip itself. Staying at small hotels/motels & carpooling with friends helped us to save money. That & we were very cheap so nothing "fancy" for us. We even slept in the car for a few days to save some money.
But for me, Australia & New Zealand are on my list to visit.
I've visited Europe, Africa, Asia, South America & the Middle East for work & vacations but I haven't been where you're at yet.
@Karma_J good thing I am easily pleased with accommodation. As long as the bed is comfortable and there is AC I am sorted.
NZ and Aussie are great places to visit.
Being in the army made me easily pleased with accommodation, so I can sleep anywhere.
@Karma_J I never had the pleasure(?) of military service though I considered a career in the Navy before I left school.
I'm just not a picky prick, it makes life so much easier.
Like I told anyone, military service will vary from person to person. Some loved it, some hated it, just approach it honestly.
I loved it but had an opportunity present itself for employment while I was in. So when my time came up I did not re-enlist and got out for a great career.
And not being a picky prick is a great way to endure life. I'm a laid back gal and I don't let a lot of things get to me. I just ignore it.
@Karma_J probably in hindsight I should have gone into the military to complete my trade but girls, alcohol and Metal concerts distracted me.
It's a fantastic route for some, but not for the many.
I'm laid back, especially when I have had a few beers. I find it's better to ignore what I see that annoys me and move on. Though sometimes the temptation to comment is hard to fight.
For me it was girls that almost got me kicked out of the army.
When I joined the army, the US official policy on same sex relationships was "Don't ask, don't tell". So whenever we had an official function/party and we were forced to go, I either came alone or had "my friend" come with me. Some people knew but they kept it quiet.
I was in a position where I couldn't afford additional attention on me so that helped shape my interactions.
