Hello
19m
Trying to decide which trip to take.

I have 5 weeks off from Nov 2nd to around mid December.
I’m trying to pick between New Zealand and Australia or Japan and South Korea.
I would be going solo, budget is 4.5-5k USD.
Some of the things I’m looking for is some hiking or time in nature, exploring cultures from each country, nightlife and adventures. Also would really like to meet people from different parts of the world.
There’s a lot of things that I really want to see in both places like the DMZ, Mt Fuji and a lot more in Japan and Korea, but also Milford sound and the Shire.
I’ve heard that NZ is pretty hard to travel around without a car, is this true?
I’ve heard that NZ is pretty expensive also.

Any insight would be very well appreciated, thank you.

Hello, 19m

For Bolivia, Same amount of days

I love outdoor activities, I am also looking to meet more backpackers and go to hostels more.
My Spanish is pretty good, looking to really see the culture.

What I’m looking for is:

Another thing is I want to see the Amazon

Any advice or experience in any of these places would be great
