I am new to travel and am looking to plan a vacation in august and december. I am open to travel both in and out of the states, however on a limited budget. Not willing to spend more than $800-$1000 dollars for at least 5 day vacation including hotel and flight. I have a life goal of visiting every US state before I die so any suggestions for locations which are not on the top 10 list of places to travel would be most helpful.

The west coast is beautiful ie: Canada - Vancouver Island or Vancouver itself. Vancouver Island has more scenary and fun things to do, where as Vancouver is a bigger city. Victoria (Capital of BC, Vancouver Island) is amazing, the scenary is just beautiful and the people are so friendly. Downtown, theres the causeway, where theres usually always preformers (magicians, mimes...artists...) and preformers who play music. To get to Victoria from Vancouver theres a few options. You can take a plane and that will take you to Victoria International (about 20 minutes), or theres a plane that will take you right to the inner harbour. Theres also the option of taking a ferry over, you can walk on and then when youre on the ferry you can book a greyhound to take you downtown or take the city bus right outside the terminal. USA -California, Oregon...if you plan on going to Oregon I suggest going to "seaside" its so beautiful there. Theres plenty of hotels to choose from, and within 5 mins of walking youre near shops and restaurants. Theres plenty to do there and its under an hour drive to Portland (I could be wrong). Not to mention all the cool outlet stores if you like to shop...and all the tax is included on the price you see (id suggest these places in the summer time.) Mexico is another great place. Its cheap and the scenary is breath taking when at the beach. (This is more a winter vacationing spot)

you can take a cruise, by yourself, for less than $1000. Check our cruisesonly.com to see what ships and ports of call seem interesting to you!! I reccomend a cruise, they are great! Your fee/cost of the cruise covers everything, including alllll food, just no alcohol. You could take a road trip and drive across the country, sleep in your car, and shower at rest stops!! I've been to 35 states, it was an amazing adventure. But we had a camper, and did all our business in there!! And im 25, so its not like i'm an old fogey!! LIVE LIFE!! Pick a kick butt vacation!!!!!!!

It sounds like you need to base yourself in one city/area and use public transportation to get around. The first place that comes to mind is my hometown of Boston - so interesting, scenic and definitely plenty to do to keep you occupied for five days. Excellent public transportation and if you do your travel research, you could find budget accommodations. You could see the shore, take a cheap cruise to the Inner Harbor Islands, visit Cambridge, walk the Freedom Trail, see museums, hang out in the best bars/pubs in the country... so much! Check out the website below to find great info on places to stay and eat!

The U.S states are not as fascinating as Rome. I don't know if that's a lot of money, but it is a fantastic place to visit. The Trevi Fountain, the Coliseum, and many other places in Rome are great places to visit in Rome. It has a fantastic history as well.
