6 Weeks of Travelling - South America or Europe?

I have six weeks of leave banked up and would like to take it in one go to spend a bit of time in one continent.

Should I use the 6 weeks in South America or Europe? Would love to hear from people who have been to both continents.

    A bit of a back story would help here massively.

    What are you interested in? Have you been to either at all before? How much $ are you planning on spending? Looking for a cheap backpacking trip or going in style?

    Also when do you plan to travel?

    Go and live in Vietnam for 6 weeks.

    Post a new thread when you get back with a comprehensive report on your experiences.

  • Useless post if we don't know your budget.

    Unlimited money? Go spend 6 weeks living on Svalbard.

    Only got 5k? Try Tasmania.

    • I reckon 42 days in Svalbard would be a long haul…

  • Budget plays a factor

    Europe is (or can be) pricey when you’re there (esp. Western Europe)

    South America is pricey to get to but easier to travel on the cheap

  • Being realistic, there's no wrong decision here. Flip a coin, let fate decide …
