I'm not traveling until next year but this will be your friend: https://www.google.com/flights/#search;f=MIA;d=2016-11-25;r=2016-11-29;mc=m
Put in the dates, departure city and set your budget. It'll tell you all the places in the world you can fly to at your budget. Incredible tool if you're just looking to travel somewhere.
A bit of simple googling should bring up lots of articles, use something like "Thailand sandbox covid" and other combinations of suitable words. Here is a good article that sets out the basics. If you choose Phuket, you can't go anywhere else in Thailand for 14 days. Bars, at this stage, are not allowed to be open.
Note that you can't just book something on hotels.com or stay in a private accommodation and go. You need to book directly with an approved hotel and stay at that hotel for 14 days. Also, it is Asia so things may change overnight.
That should be fun! Make sure you have the proper gear. They have had to do quite a few rescues in the last few weeks. I’d come along, but I’m more into backpacking myself.

I’ll be solo hiking section J of the PCT of WA (snoqualmie pass to stevens pass) in August. 6 days, 7 nights, 88 miles. Let me know if you are interested. (25M). I am based out of WA.
Here is the trail:

Hello!
It was epic! I recommend it. I particularly enjoyed the mountain roads in Belgrade and Croatia.
Here is the path I took and my notes along the way:

My dude....the forecast is here:
https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/yosemite-valley/95389/daily-weather-forecast/2274573
And it clearly shows highs in the 50s this week in the Valley. The park itself will be wide open as I just confirmed with the ranger.
The snow storm forecast is above 7,000 feet for 6-12" which is easily handled in that area. The passes may close for a short period of time but they'll be plowed within a day or two. I confirmed this with both CALDOT and an NPS ranger.
Tioga does typically close in late November. Glacier Point as well. Mariposa Grove stays open the longest and didn't close at all for 2016 & 2017.
Again, while it may not be YOUR cup of tea....there are certainly many people still visiting Yosemite in November. I've visited in December and January many times camping and backpacking even. It required nothing more exotic than winter clothing and a zero degree sleeping bag.
Besides which, OP isn't set on Yosemite and was simply talking about going 'West'. There are TONS of options out West where the weather is just fine.
well you don't really have to learn alot just the basics and also it's a good start of conversation to ask about the words with the loclas, below is a site i bumped into a while ago to help you with the pronounciations. Good luck over there and take the ferry to Vis and go to a restaurant with the tradional lamb dish and ask for Mario he works there he's a great guy, if you smoke weed he'll hook you up if your friendly ! vis would be the only place where it's easy to find some, everywhere else is only hashish, http://www.forvo.com
Hey, I'm planning a very similar trip! Although I'm hoping to leave a bit sooner - late June-ish. No real set dates besides a loose outline of where to camp and places I want to see (lots of National Parks in Utah!) 2 months on the road
If you're interested in tagging along, or just curious of some info (free campsites/routes), hit me up!
Some info: My route via Roadtrippers app/website This gives some good info on gas cost and sights to see
That makes sense, I'd been driving back a different route to maximize more notable locations. A tentative driving route: https://roadtrippers.com/map?a2=t!16386270&lat=36.42845432073334&lng=-97.80784176400977&utm_campaign=trip&utm_medium=share&utm_source=copy&z=4.524676774631358
Hey, I'm on a road trip from Montreal toward Central America as well. Here's a very rough and flexible itinerary.
We could meet somewhere around Blue Ridge Parkway (Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina) in around a week, if you do start the trip relatively soon.
I purposely didn't plan too much, so that my trip can stay flexible, and I can drive to whichever random/unexpected attraction. As for accommodation, I was thinking mainly free (BLM) camping in US, and more hostels in Mexico and Central America (only camp sometimes in safe State Parks). I don't plan anything specific more than 2-3 days in advance. I do have to head back around May 26/27 though.
I don't plan on sticking to a very defined path either. I'll drive, eat and sleep anywhere that's interesting.
Here's a potential route. I might also go towards Detroit/Chicago at first with a few friends, and then go south towards Mexico, and Central America. Did you plan on staying in the States only?
https://roadtrippers.com is a really good website that I've used before! You can map out a general line and find attractions along the way :) When are you planning to go? I would like to spend Christmas with the family and classes start on Jan 20th for me on the West Coast. So that gives us about 3 weeks to go cross country?
Here you go! This may seem too little, but honestly you don't need anywhere near what 99% of the folks bring. You'll see the old timers (who have done it 10, 20+ times) with a little day backpack and they may think this is too much.
Done!
