Default Where to go?

Hey i'm just starting to do some research for my next trip but i was wondering what people thought were the most fun places to go for a couple college aged kids who are looking for a good night life and things to do during the day (adventure trips, beaches, etc..) Right now Thailand, Bali, Sydney and Auckland are the top spots that come to mind, any other suggestions?
Thanks

If your worried about money I would say Thailand as its proberly cheaper to get there as well as to do things while your there. If not I would say Auckland / Sydney although they may be similar to where you come from... which is....?

Is money an issue at all? where are you coming from? I mean there's TONS of party towns across the world dude, you might want to narrow it down a little...

Forget Sydney and go for Perth.

I didn't like Auckland that much, from what I saw. I'd go for some places along the southern island.

yeah, if headed to NZ, i don't think auckland's the place to party it up. head to queenstown if you wanna party. and you can bungy and street luge and shit during the day. or ski/snowboard as well in the winter.

Los Angeles and surrounding areas is home to about 140 nationalities. As a result, you will find fantastic cultural events all year round. Be sure to beat the wait at ticket lines (and high costs from hotel concierge services) and get you tickets online.
