I'm planning on going on a snowboarding trip to the alps during wintertime. Would go solo since I have no friends who would have the money to go(I'm 20, go to uni, live with my mother and have about $130k in LINK). Trip would probably cost like €2k so I figured it's ok. Problem is what the fuck do I say to my family about this trip? Lie about where I got the money? Also is going on a solo vacation a bit weird? I hope some of you have some experience with this and maybe some tips and tricks on how to pick the best hotels or save money on certain stuff or how to go and make some friends there to hang out with.

Maby front most of the costs so your friends can go and tell your mom they all pitched in.

I'm not gonna lend my friends that kind of money and they definitely not gonna spend €2k on a trip. Here everybody looks for under € 1k trips, but I want a proper vacation.

Unless you're super extroverted and make friends easily + go to a place with lots of young people, going solo is probably not worth it. It's way easier to go and sign up for surf/snowboard camps. You'll learn the sport or hang out with the more advanced people. You'll do loads of shared activities and go out drinking and stuff, which makes it very easy to meet people. If you're very proficient at those sports you could even volunteer as a teacher. Surfers and snowboarders are some of the most chill people you'll ever meet, but they are also turbo normies. Even if you aren't a turbo normie you'll still get laid there.

It's not for everyone, but if you're a young 20 something dude who likes those sports you should definitely try it out sometime. It's very easy to make friends that way, even if you join the camp solo.

Traveling alone is extremely based. Most of my friends get annoying anyways after a couple days when Iv done the whole friend vacation. I much prefer doing what I want to do, instead of the whole group shit .

while solo travel is truly based in this case i second going with a camp, you can always go snowboarding solo if the people there bother you but on this kind on trip its a lot more fun in group and easier to meet people and maybe slay a girl if youre not repulsive and/or full on autistic

I'll come too because i'm actually nearly a pro snowboarder, but only if you buy some ARPA so you would actually listen to me when I tell you how it will change the world

The camp thing seems like a solid idea. Google search showed me some 7 day camps so I think that's a good plan plus I'll get to learn faster this way(I know how to ride, but just a beginner still). Not really looking to slay girls, but having some fun during night time would be great as well otherwise I would just snowboard during the day and do fuck all during the night.

Anon afaik you are a hitman after my linkies. I'd have to reallocate my linkies and maybe buy some gun kek just in case.

Kinda feel this as well. I'd like to be completely alone to feel that true freedom since I don't even live alone. Hopefully LINK will hit $20 so I can justify moving out.

Nice anon. I went skiing for the first time in my life last februari and I had a blast. Winter sports are awesome and skiing/snowboarding right into a bar around 4pm is great. Still in full gear drinking ice cold beers and fucking around with the group. You'll have a great time
