I'm from Hemel Hempstead in Hertfordshire. No I've never been on this kind of trip before! I fancy a bit of a mix like you said! I would like to check out some clubs, enjoy some nightlife but also I want to see some sights. I don't plan on just getting drunk lol. I want to explore a bit, see things, really see America. I'd love to visit the Grand Canyon for example if possible. I probably come across as a bit naive, as if my plans are a bit all over the place. I want to go for around a month. I guess I should research a bit more into it!
