Something to do in Summer 2009

I'm going to have a few months off in the summer and I really want to make the most of it and do some travelling. I was thinking of doing one of those organised projects (probably to do with animals and conservation), the ones i've looked at are quite expensive. I was wondering if anyone had any advice or recommendations. Preferably whatever I do will end up nearly breaking even.
I'm also worried about travelling alone but not sure I can imagine spending so much time with just one person if i was to go with any of my friends instead o doing a project.
Any advice appreciated.

If conservation is your thing, you can get posts as Wilderness Counsellors. It involves taking the kids out into the countryside (the camp where I was had a forest and a lake) and getting them into wildlife. You also get to do a lot of camp-outs in tents and build fires and shelters. Tis all good fun.
Oh and also - check our Trek America too. Expensive tours, but well worth the money as they take you completely off the beaten track.
i know its pricey at nearly 2 grand but its something i really want to do!!
