I have to plan and lead a 2 week expedition for school, and if they let me, I'm just going to jet off with my husband and backpack somewhere as our vacation for the year together. I have a few ideas and figured what the heck, let's make a discussion online with a bunch of internet weirdos who also like backpacking and poo poo. We would hit the Southern hemisphere in March, or the Northern hemisphere in May. Give me your opinions!

All those north hemisphere places are pretty high latitude, will may be mid breakup? What about the desert, i bet that's cool in may.

Not been there myself, but I have a friend who recently did the highlands of Scotland and was beaming about it

In May (if you want to do Europe) you want to do Alpi Maritimi or Val de Maira in Italy. Bit off the beaten track, amazing food, good paths and there's some through routes that you can keep going on.

Sorry I was away camping for a week in the Rockies, it was a good time but broke my camera. The desert is awesome but we're looking for lusher landscapes, it's kind of our thing. Plus I already did an expedition in Canyonlands a couple years ago. My reason for choosing spring is mostly job related, I want to be working over the summer because I am guaranteed great hours and after not working for 2 and a half months, it'll be really necessary. Italy is interesting, but if it ends up being near the same cost as NZ, NZ will definitely be the preferred choice.
