Egypt! Jordan! Morocco! Oh, my!

[sereniteys]

So I’m going to Egypt, Jordan and Morocco (plus Dubai for 2days) at the end of the year for a month. It’s going to cost about $10,000 which makes my eyes bug. My parents are going to lend me $2-3000, I have about $4000 and I’m working at a resturant.

We need to pay airfares by the end of the month as well as travel insurance which is about $4,500,

No, the tours aren't through the uni. It's through a few tour companies (we're going on three). By themselves, each tour is quite cheap but together, it gets pricey. Both the plane tickets (including internal flights), and the tours (with extra accommodation) come out to about four grand each. Then its spending money. :)

Unfortunately with uni commitments, it's probably more reasonable to be a stripper! I have a friend who works in pubs and clubs, maybe she knows a good one ;)
I've got an Industry placement at the South Adelaide Football Club two days a week, uni another two partial days, plus a thesis, so it's a bit hard to work in anything more substantial job wise. But you're definitely right about needing to increase income. I'm just hoping to increase my hours at Charlies so I can increase my spending money and pay the parentals back sooner.

Between the parentals, the girl I'm going with and myself, we can cover the costs. My friend offered to pay my flights as given an extra few weeks, Mum can pay me back and lend me some money so that’s good. Luckily, the girl I’m going with does have a full time job and thousands in savings.
