My number one love in life is to travel. I am the happiest when I am traveling. :) I love to see new places and experience different cultures. It's fun to experience different climates, types of people, food, scenery, and the list goes on. Today, while sitting by the pool, I made a travel bucket list. If I made just a bucket list, the whole list would pretty much be about traveling anyway. :-P Boy do I have some ground to cover! :) I've covered almost half of the US which I think is pretty good so far. I've visited 20 states and 29 cities in the US. I count a city if I actually stayed overnight and did something in that city. Layovers, overnight stays enroute, and plane flying through doesn't count. I did include the cities that I have lived in (excluding all the different suburbs of Cleveland; Cle just counts as one). In addition, I've been to four other countries besides the US. Favorite three cities in the US that I've been to: NYC, Austin, and Sedona. I've loved every country that I've been to because they have each been very different. There's something to love about all of them.
I broke the travel bucket list down by countries/area of the world.
United States: Seattle, San Francisco, Hawaii, Colorado, New Orleans (for Mardi Gras)
Canada: Montreal, Toronto
Mexico: Any resort in Mexico-whoever recommends a good one :)
Carribean
Europe: A one month tour of all the major cities in Europe, London, Ireland, Iceland (to see the Northern Lights)
Australia
New Zealand
China: Hong Kong, Shanghai
Tokyo
Southeast Asia: Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos, Bali, Borneo (these are some of the many recommended places from friends that have lived here for awhile and have travelled around SE Asia a bit)
It will be easy to travel southeast Asia while I am here. You can travel to many of the countries for very cheap (S$100-120 round trip flight) and they aren't that far away so a weekend is all you need for many of them. I'll plan my first weekend trip away to Malaysia soon, since it's less than hour away via bus or train.
What's your favorite city or country that you've been to?
The world should confirm to THE language.....ENGLISH. No need to speak with an inferior tongue. We earned it.
ReplyDeleteBTW, the one exception would be California, they deserve two languages, after all they earned it also.
Confucius (well you are close to CHINA) say:
ReplyDeleteHe who travel most, stay in debt longest.
He who take big loan, need to work more, play less.
That's an interesting point of view Confucius/Anonymous. :)
ReplyDeleteAlbeit not mine. :)
