Has anyone on here been backpacking around Surrey?

Any tips or experiences you would care to share?

How much would you think it would cost (not including busfare) for a month and a half, staying in hotels every nite (average hotel seems to be $35cdn sometimes less and in a few places $5 more)?

did u go by urself and did u stay in the main ditches or did u venture into the north and south of Surrey?

Im thinking about going summer 2006 by myself...i can speak a bit of punjabi and i can read 2 out of the 3 alphabets (cant read which sucks cause theres always words) any suggestions?
TIA

edit: I already have the lonely planet Surrey book and i know a bit of the cultural differences because i took a lot of sex-ed classes and we did quite a bit on culture and etiquette

Hhahhahahhahah.

But uh yeah, the old abandoned Surrey Public Market is a great place. The bottom floor is a Graf pit now, but it's warm and dry, and a McDo's right across the street! A bum's best friend.

Why did I give serious advice to a joke post. Oh well...

^^these pics are truly a marvel, I dont know why Surrey gets so little attention from the tourists, its such a B-eau-ti-ful town. You're gonna need backup on your trip tho.

Dude I was serious. The abandoned Surrey Public Market is so key. It's fairly clean, dry, already decorated, and across the street from McDo's.

a little off topic, but have you guys seen the videos on baitcar.com?
'lets get this thing back to surrey'
'man, all i wanted was a ride back to surrey'
so good

Surrey is a smorgasbord of mattress and strollers
the roots of white boys who think they are high rollers
I took a wrong turn and there was a funny smell
I looked around to see I was truly in hell

There's garbage in the streets and in the houses too
there's constant construction but nothings ever new
gone in 60 seconds is my automobile
cause those damn surrey bastards they love to steal

Beer guts and surrey sluts
mullets with camaros and tattooed butts
crack baby children with single moms
all get together to sing this song

I found the bridge out but the line was really long
I guess there's something accurate in this crappy song
Everyone hates Surrey it's a fuckin' hole
and I wouldn't go back to save my soul

Beer guts and surrey sluts
mullets with camaros and tattooed butts
crack baby children with single moms
all get together to sing this song

So take it from me, Surrey ain't the place to be
I tripped on a mattress, it was covered in pee
don't go to thrift store just go to Surrey
If you need a new couch I got twelve on my street...

If I were you I'd spend atleast one night at the Surrey campus of Kwantlen. It's full of little girls, it's clean, there's always construction going on so you could crash there easy and the security guards are dumber than average
